We are seeing incredible progress in the roll-out of Covid-19 vaccines. We are on track for all adults in the UK to have been offered the vaccine by July. Researchers and healthcare workers are rightfully being celebrated for all their work but if there is one thing the global pandemic has highlighted, it is how interconnected we are. Global travel, networks of research, and international support and PPE provision have been at the heart of keeping things ticking over and this is just as true in getting people around the world vaccinated. The UK is one country leading the way in vaccine roll-out but this brings with it the challenge of transportation.
