Description: Caption:
Created on December 3, 2012, this photograph was captured by U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Health Communication Specialist, Alan Janssen, MSPH, while he was in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh reviewing the methods, and implementation of the regions measles and polio vaccination programs. The mother here, on the left, had brought her young child to this vaccination post, in order to have him vaccinated against vaccine-preventable diseases, including polio, and measles. To the mother's left, you could see a social mobilizer, whose job it was to get the word out to the general public, as to the benefits of childhood vaccinations, and to allay parental fears towards Western medicine. Note the seated group of young children, who were patiently waiting to receive their requisite vaccinations.
