In this episode, Sophie Yass (‘22) and Stephanie Lu (‘25) discover the health economics of vaccines and what the market for COVID-19 vaccines looks like. The hosts speak to Tina Marsh Dalton, Ph.D. from the Wake Forest Economics Department and the Public Health Sciences Division at Wake Forest School of Medicine.
