The bestselling inside story of a historic moment for science and for humanity.
On 1 January 2020, Professor Sarah Gilbert read an article about four people in China with an illness of unknown cause. Within two weeks, she and her team had designed a new vaccine that would go on to save millions of lives from Covid-19.
Capturing a landmark moment, Sarah Gilbert and Catherine Green reveal their story of making the pioneering Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine and fighting a pandemic as ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. They separate fact from fiction, they explain how they made their highly effective vaccine in record time with the eyes of the world watching, and they give us hope for the future.

Recenzii
This book is a profound success. I have read few that have given me such an immediate, eye-level view of working science - of brilliant, committed, heroic science.
Vaxxers is the amazing tale of a vaccine that has saved so many of our lives. It's a dramatic, page-turning read, and incredibly moving
Moving and awe-inspiring... The story of the decade
Excellent and readable ... Vaxxers is so good that the book will be read for long after the pandemic is over.
Urgent and fascinating ... A tale of hard work and victory against steep odds, a unique insight into vaccines generally ... A gripping yarn ... I dare anyone to read this and not come away impressed.
An enthralling tale of toil, tenacity and triumph ... The world needs all the Sarah Gilberts and Catherine Greens it can get. Just brilliant.
Heroes of our time ... Fired by a mission to save the world, these researchers are dedicated, altruistic, and determined ... Let's hope people who have not yet taken up the vaccine read Vaxxers and decide to have the jab.
One of the most epic and pioneering moments in human history, comparable to the race to put a man on the moon, the discovery of DNA, or the first ascent of Everest. The Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine is a triumph and its creators are life savers.
An extraordinary story with a remarkable beginning and an astonishing denouement
A personal story of one of the most epic moments in human history ... I take my hat off in thanks to these remarkable women.
An extraordinary story of professional determination and excellence... Vaxxers is a quintessential feel-good read... Bravo Sarah. Bravo Cath. Thank you for making the world a safer place.
One of the most extraordinary stories in the history of medicine.
A book that anyone even slightly vaccine-hesitant should read, because it addresses almost every concern or question that might be raised... a fascinating behind-the-scenes look ... One of the great moments in modern science
A biomedical thriller.
Enthralling and engagingly personal ... Vaxxers is an engrossing tale of solid science that should reassure anyone.
