Career
Weintraub works with vaccine delivery planning at Ariadne Labs at Harvard Medical School. Ariadne Labs has a clear mission, declaring that "ending the pandemic will require vaccinating everyone in every corner of the globe".[2]
The Vaccine Delivery team is working on new COVID-19 vaccine strategies "to reach the people and populations not yet vaccinated in the US". On August 3, 2021 she said “At this stage in the pandemic, we need to change our playbook”...“And that’s going to include vaccine mandates.”[3] She is a supporter of COVID-vaccines for children.[1]
She advises the Department of Health and Human Services' National Vaccine Advisory Committee, state leaders, health entrepreneurs, and serves on the CONVINCE Steering Committee[4], a project working on communication strategy development to "to create support for COVID-19 immunization and the science behind it." One of its partners is the Vaccine Confidence Project at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.[5]
Weintraub predicted that the mandated vaccines would make people quit their jobs to avoid the injection, a collateral damage she was willing to accept. However, she hopes the coercion worked better than planned: "while it was initially believed that employees would resign en masse in the face of vaccination mandates, many pieces of anecdotal evidence suggests that this is not the case."[6]
In front of the G7 summit in June 2021, Weintraub suggested a plan in lockstep to boost vaccinations worldwide was needed and that “It needs to be global leaders functioning as a unit, to say that vaccine is a form of global security.” She suggested that the G7 could lead such a campaign and finance it.[7]
She also practices Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital She is Managing Director at Draper Richard Kaplan, a "venture philanthropy" firm.[8].
