Harvey Fineberg: Ready When Needed

Vaccines that could save us from Covid19 are being developed with
unprecedented speed. Harvey Fineberg argues this would have been
impossible without decades of basic research. Research that, at
the time, seemed to have little or no practical purpose.
Fineberg, president of the Moore Foundation, tells Alan: “Our
ability to live healthy, prosperous, and satisfying lives has
been served and advanced by basic science. The chains of linkage
of causation are obvious to anyone who just takes a look.”
