S1E70: Country In-Roads: Building Vaccine Confidence in Rural America / Elizabeth Ellis, Dana Friend, Anna Loge and Chris Martin

Rural America’s vaccine rollout has bucked expectations. A recent survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation found that four in 10 rural Americans reported getting at least their first dose of vaccine. That’s compared to three in 10 in urban and suburban areas.

Dr. Celine Gounder is the host of EPIDEMIC, a podcast about the public health and science of the coronavirus pandemic. In this excerpt from the podcast she speaks to Elizabeth Ellis — the only practitioner in a rural Texas town — about her efforts to get people vaccinated.
