This photograph depicted Pakistani Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) 2nd cohort resident, Dr. Muhammad Dawood Kasi, as he was in the process of administering oral polio vaccine (OPV) to unvaccinated children, in the union council locality of Kharotabad, Balochistan, Pakistan, during the July 2011, polio campaign. Here, you see Dr. Kasi supporting a young Pakistani boy’s head, as he dropped the OPV into his open mouth, while his friends looked on. 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.
