Description
In these days of the Western, podner, every man must have his "heater" ready and 5-year-old Wayne Tate, Cincinnati, is no exception as he prepares to swallow his Sabin live virus polio vaccine. Registered nurse, Mrs. Judy Gense, of Cincinnati Public Health Services, seems to have gotten the message as she carefully starts the vaccine on its way down. This was the first day of mass immunization of children in Cincinnati area with the vaccine developed by Dr. Albert Sabin, Cincinnati's internationally known researcher.
