Immunization Campaign in West Africa

From the creator

The number of polio cases around the world has been cut from 350,000 in 1988 to just over 1000 in 2004. 85% of those cases were in Africa where many thousands of children were left unvaccinated and vulnerable by major conflict in Sudan and on the West coast. The number of infected children doubled in twelve months. This year, UNICEF vaccination teams are determined to cross conflict lines and reach deep into remote communities to ensure that every child is imunized. Credits: Producer:Rachel Bonham-Carter
