The Wider Image: Doctors scale rockslides, invoke gods to vaccinate

Kanta Devi, 26, a health worker, carries a box containing COVISHIELD vaccines, as she walks through a road that was blocked after a landslide, during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, near Malana village in Kullu district in the Himalayan state of Himachal Pradesh, India, September 14, 2021. Blocked by the landslide, they left their vehicle with two blue vaccine boxes slung over their shoulders to manoeuvre over the rubble, climb the wall and then walk to the trailhead leading to the village. Despite the hostile terrain, the northern state of Himachal Pradesh became the first in India to administer at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose in all its adults. REUTERS/Adnan Abidi
