Captured in 1961, this historic photograph depicted what was taking place at a mass polio vaccination event, held in Dekalb County, Georgia, where an oral vaccination campaign was being held. In this view, a mother and her three children, were standing before a table manned by a polio vaccine administration nurse, who had given a sugar cube that had been imbibed with oral polio vaccine to one of the girls, who was about to ingest it, thereby, completing her vaccination process.
