Oct 24 is World Polio Day

Since Rotary started the fight against polio, we’ve reduced the number of polio cases by 99.9 percent and reached more than 2.5 billion children with the vaccine. There are fewer polio cases today than ever before, but we will not stop until we reach zero. If polio is not eradicated, hundreds of thousands of children could be paralyzed.

The child is the photo is showing her pinky because after a child is vaccinated their pinky is inked so there is no confusion and they don't get vaccinated a 2nd time.
