English: Mothers and babies aged between 0 and 5 years are lining up in a Health Post at Begoua, a district of the Central African Republic’s capital Bangui, waiting for the two drops of the oral polio vaccine that will prevent paralysis and death, 15 May 2008. UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Mia Farrow launched the 3-day polio vaccination campaign at the start of her visit to CAR. Despite the progress over the past few years, medical care remains both costly and inaccessible for many families across CAR. Despite tremendous progress, vaccination coverage for preventable diseases stands at less than 50% and one child in five does not live to celebrate his or her fifth birthday.
Deutsch: Mütter und Babys im Alter zwischen 0 und 5 Jahren warten am 15. Mai 2008 vor einem Gesundheitszentrum in Begoua, einem Bezirk der Hauptstadt Bangui der Zentralafrikanischen Republik, auf die zwei Tropfen des oralen Polio-Impfstoffs, die Lähmungen und Tod verhindern. Die UNICEF-Botschafterin Mia Farrow startete zu Beginn ihres Besuchs eine dreitägige Impfkampagne gegen Kinderlähmung. Trotz der Fortschritte in den letzten Jahren bleibt die medizinische Versorgung für viele Familien in der gesamten Zentralafrikanischen Republik sowohl kostspielig als auch unzugänglich. Trotz enormer Fortschritte liegt die Impfrate gegen vermeidbare Krankheiten bei weniger als 50%, und jedes fünfte Kind erlebt seinen fünften Geburtstag nicht.
