Caption:
While being held on his mother’s lap, this infant was receiving an intramuscular immunization in his right thigh muscle by a qualified nurse. The nurse had immobilized the infant’s leg by using the palm of her hand, thereby stabilizing the injection site, while simultaneously distracting the infant from the action at hand.
