CNN has set a May 15 debut for Race for the Vaccine, a documentary narrated and produced by chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta about global scientists scrambling to develop and manufacture vaccines to battle the coronavirus pandemic.

PBS has produced a radiant documentary, directed by Ric Burns, that shows how Sacks embodies what Sir William Osler said, over a century ago: “It is the good physician that treats the disease. It is the great physician who treats the patient with the disease.” No wonder Sacks was so beloved.

This past week, a documentary on Sacks premiered on the PBS “American Masters” series...Sacks did as much as anyone to introduce autism to a general audience in the United States...

In the PBS presentation, documentary filmmaker Ric Burns chronicles Sacks’ storied career as well as his long struggle with his sexuality.
