The process of polio vaccine implementation will resume in Afghanistan

The house-to-house adjustment of the polio vaccine, which was halted as a result of recent developments in Afghanistan, is set to resume on November 8, according to the World Health Organization.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said in a statement released yesterday that the polio vaccine will be resumed across Afghanistan on November 8.

Nearly 3.3 million children have reportedly been deprived of the vaccine in the past as a result of recent developments in remote parts of Afghanistan, according to the statement.

Emphasizing the importance of this vaccine, the World Health Organization has said that its implementation is now important to prevent any significant exacerbation of polio within Afghanistan and other countries.

Meanwhile, the UNICEF Representative in Afghanistan stressed the importance of this process, saying: “To eradicate polio completely, all children in every family across Afghanistan must be vaccinated and we intend to do so with our partners. »
