Welcome to Episode 13 of the HealthcareHub Podcast! We’re back with one of our most exciting episodes yet.

This week we welcome Fabien Paquette, Vaccines Canada Lead and General Manager at Pfizer. Fabien has obviously had quite the adventure over the course of the pandemic this past year, but he also boasts a long history of business leadership in the pharmaceutical industry even prior to joining Pfizer. We of course dove into the journey of bringing a vaccine to the public in record time, as well as where vaccine rollout seems to be headed from Fabien’s perspective.

Ahead of the interview, Tyler sets the stage with a rapid-fire update on a variety of news for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, while Abhinav finishes us off with a spotlight on Zipline, a life-saving drone delivery company for medical supplies.

Thanks for tuning in and we can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
