A long line winds toward the entrance to Morrisania Hospital in the Bronx borough of New York, where doctors were vaccinating against smallpox. April 14, 1947 [1792 x 1486]
Caption is a little wonky. Probably make more sense if it said the New York borough of the Bronx. Whatever. You get the idea.

Have a glance at the photos on the Wikipedia page for smallpox. You’d wait in that line too and feel lucky. It’s not until 1977 that we get the last recorded case of smallpox.
