Vaccine distribution has been deeply unequal , with poorer regions getting left behind . The new Delta variant has wreaked havoc - first in South Asia before spreading to the west , where it is now the most prevalent strain . Now scientists warn that England ' s decision to lift restrictions despite rising cases will endanger the whole world .
It ' s clear the challenge isn ' t over , but that doesn ' t mean it won ' t be . We spoke to DataRobot ' s Sally Embrey , who told us they are building data models to ensure vaccine trials are diverse and will work on the whole population .
Wolter Kluwer and Premier Home Health Care explain how they use data to save lives in two very different ways : in clinical settings and in-home care . We also have a feature on the latest wearables , from post-operative care to reproductive health .
We have the tools to make things better ; they just need to be used .
