Caption:
Captured on November 5, 2014, during a supplementary polio immunization campaign in Wajir Bor, Kenya, Kenyan Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) resident, Elvis Oyubi, was shown helping the polio vaccination team prepare to vaccinate a child seated in a wagon loaded with family possessions. The child was traveling with his mother, whose back was to the camera, and a donkey, whose job it was to pull this cart, but had taken a break to nibble on the sparse grasses. The FETP trains workers on the ground to help countries build sustainable capacity for detecting and responding to health threats. The program develops in-country expertise, so that disease outbreaks can be detected locally, and prevented from spreading.
