In the past 20 years, simple innovations for malaria and other diseases, like bed nets, vaccines, rapid tests, and treatments have saved over 100 million lives. In our first episode, we hear from two pioneers at the heart of this global health revolution: John Bridgeland ("Bridge"), former Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council under President Bush, and Rear Admiral Tim Ziemer, the first U.S. Global Malaria Coordinator. 

Together, they share how a unique convergence of global crises, political leadership, and ambitious vision laid the groundwork for the modern malaria campaign, driving the largest expansion of global health programming in history.
