Captured in the Local Government Area (LGA) of Bagwai, in the Kano State of northern Nigeria, January 2013, this image depicted Nigerian Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) resident, Dr. Binta Bako Sule, in the process of administering the oral polio vaccine (OPV) to a previously missed child, during a National-Stop Transmission of Polio (STOP) exercise for the National Supplemental Immunization Activity in this region. 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.
