Fix The News Newsletter: An update on our malaria vaccine podcast After months of research, a few false starts and a lot of unstable internet connections, we have miraculously banked 12 interviews, plus a ton of Whatsapp voice notes, and the story has really started to take shape. 16 countries in Africa have begun administering malaria vaccines this year, and the news bulletins about those shipments arriving in places like Maputo or Freetown have been pretty exciting. However, as soon as we started drilling down on the experience of one country - Sierra Leone - we discovered that the reality on the ground is far more complicated than the picture being painted in those reports. The logistical hurdles of getting the vaccine out to the communities who need it most are just incredibly high; it's not a ‘straight line from A to B’ kind of journey - the roads are bad or sometimes even non-existent, keeping the vaccines cold is a nightmare, and tracking them all is an ongoing challenge. What surprised us the most though, is how much work has to be done before the vaccines even land at the airport. Every day across Sierra Leone, there are people literally going door to door to combat misinformation and get local communities on board. While we expected to speak to healthcare workers, we never imagined the key roles that religious leaders or a group of market women would play. But that’s the thing about zooming in. You discover things that are impossible to describe in a one-off news report, especially when it comes to a global story as epic as this one.
