Her story
Tembi is a giraffe, so she has the best view of the whole herd, and she takes herd immunity personally. She became an immunisation nurse after watching measles race through a playground in a single week. Her long neck means she can see everyone’s record at once, her steady hooves give the gentlest jabs in the business, and she keeps a pocket full of stickers for anyone who needs one, adults included.
