Caption:

This image was captured during the 2015, Nigerian measles vaccination campaign, by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) staffer, Lisa K. Esapa, who described the scene as follows, “Vaccination teams must visit all schools during supplemental immunization activities (SIAs) for measles, to ensure all eligible children are protected against measles. This young happy student was excited to see the vaccination teams, and take a break from her studies. Her positive attitude helped to encourage her classmates not to be afraid of the vaccinators.” The picture was an entry in the 2016 CDC Connects, Public Health in Action Photo Contest, in the category of Programs-International.
