The Vaccine: Documenting History w/ Joe Miller

The Sod's Law Podcast - A podcast by GoldBean Studios

This week we're talking to Joe Miller... Joe is a journalist and writer, who covered BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine project in real time as the Financial Times’ correspondent in Frankfurt, where he also reports on German business, tech and innovation. In March 2021 he wrote the first English-language profile of Uğur Şahin, one of the two German-Turkish scientists responsible for the work, and had regular access to the company throughout the vaccine’s development in Mainz.  Prior to joining the FT in 2019, Joe spent six years at BBC News and the BBC World Service, working first in the London newsroom, and then as a correspondent in New York, Delhi and Berlin.  Joe’s book, The Vaccine: Inside the Race to Conquer the COVID-19 Pandemic is being released in English on the 9th of December 2021 anywhere you get books, and I highly recommend preordering it now! hive.co.uk Amazon.co.uk Joe's Twitter - @JoeMillerJr -- This episode is sponsored by MANSCAPED and Northern Powerhouse Media.
