Registered nurse, Miriam Nampil, 55 years, vaccinates the first baby with a commercial drone delivered vaccine. Baby Joy Nowai, one month old, receives vaccines BCG to prevent tuberculosis and Hepatitis B. Joy missed her first vaccines after birth as no nurses were available on the east side of the island that week and it was too far for her mother, Julie Nowai, 28 years, to walk.
