Within Two Weeks, She And Her Team Had Designed A Vaccine Against A Pathogen That No One Had Ever Seen Before. Less Than 12 Months Later, Vaccination Was Rolled Out Across The World To Save Millions Of Lives From Covid-19.
In Vaxxers, We Hear Directly From Professor Gilbert And Her Colleague Dr Catherine Green As They Reveal The Inside Story Of Making The Oxford Astrazeneca Vaccine And The Cutting-Edge Science And Sheer Hard Work Behind It.
