Walter Isaacson's Experience in Pfizer Vaccine Trials
Behind every vaccine are thousands of trial volunteers – and in Pfizer’s case, one of those thousands is our own Walter Isaacson.

Nevertheless, he joins the show to share the rare experience of being a guinea pig in the race to defeat COVID-19.
