The failure to vaccinate the world

Listen Later

Almost 1 out of 2 Americans have had their first dose of vaccination against Covid-19. Compare that to 1 in 10 for the rest of the world. In the U.K. where second doses have been delayed, a newer variant is starting to outpace others.

  • Plus, President Biden plans to meet with Vladimir Putin.
  • And, new polling on how Americans view the fight for racial justice.

    • Guests: Axios' Dave Lawler, Zach Basu, and Margaret Talev.
