Is the current method of raising capital for expensive vaccines, such as those presently in preparation for the coronavirus COVID-19, the best we can do? The three speakers at this event think not.

Chris Snyder ("In the Race for a Coronavirus Vaccine, We Must Go Big. Really, Really Big," New York Times, May 2020), Kendall Hoyt ("Designing Pull Funding For A COVID-19 Vaccine," Health Affairs, Sept 2020), and Bernie Avishai ("The Case for a Coronavirus-Vaccine Bond," The New Yorker, Sept 2020) all have been actively exploring bolder approaches to vaccine financing.

The event took place on Tuesday, October 27, 2020, at noon.
