[BONUS] Gates Foundation: Make Me Care About…Syringes

For The Love With Jen Hatmaker Podcast

Another special bonus episode from the “Make Me Care About” podcast from the Gates Foundation with our own Jen Hatmaker talking with another amazing expert about things we may not know or care about, but should! This episode gives us the privilege of speaking with Surabhi Rajaram, a Program Officer at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation who focuses on improving immunization delivery. We dive deep into the world of safe syringes, and why they are so important in saving lives.

Surabhi Rajaram is a true expert in her field, with years of experience at the forefront of improving global health. Today she shares her knowledge on the features of an auto-disabled syringe, and how it physically prevents the user from being able to withdraw the syringe again, ultimately preventing the spread of illness.

Join Jen and Surabhi as they discuss:

  • Why safe syringes are so important to effective vaccine delivery

  • The importance of investing in scalable syringe manufacturing

  • Improving immunization delivery for a safer world

  • How preparing for disease threats like COVID requires syringe innovation 

Our guest shares their life’s work around investing in safe and effective syringe manufacturing and delivery and how each of us can make a difference in the world of global health by learning more about this important topic.
