Caption:
This image was created in October 2014, by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Epidemiologist, Mary Alleman, MPH, PhD, during an outbreak of wild poliovirus in the Central African nation of Cameroon, in the city of Ebolowa, in the South Region of Cameroon. The photograph depicted the screen of a mobile telephone, which displayed a French SMS-based “ALERTESANTE”, or in English, “Health Alert”, message, which was produced through a collaborative effort made by polio eradication partners in Cameroon. This was one of the entries in the 2015 CDC Connects, Public Health in Action Photo Contest.
