TV doctor Jane joins measles fight

She could not actually administer the vaccinations, but Jane Seymour, the English actress who played TV’s Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman, lent her celebrity to help promote a campaign aimed at eliminating measles in Africa on Tuesday.

Seymour, with eight Los Angeles school children and a documentary film crew in tow, toured Kenyan vaccination centres set up as part of the Measles Initiative - a five year long, continent-wide campaign led by The American Red Cross.
