From the Rotaract club of Birgunj, Nepal, Abhishek Choudhary, (middle) holds a baby while Rotarian, Om Prakash Sikaria (right) administers a polio vaccine during subnational polio immunization activities. Border towns with little regulations like Birgunj, are high risk for the spread of the polio virus.
