The start of the nationwide polio vaccination plan in Afghanistan

According to the regional office of Tasnim News Agency, the organization ” “Afghanistan Without Polio” in Afghanistan announced that polio vaccination has been started in all provinces since today, May 10, and at the same time, children will be given vitamin E to strengthen their immunity against the disease.

Earlier, the Ministry of Health of the Taliban government emphasized: Since the beginning of 2024, no positive cases of polio have been observed in Afghanistan.

What to say Afghanistan and Pakistan are two countries where polio still threatens their children. This viral disease has no cure, it affects the digestive system and sometimes the central nervous system, and it can only be prevented by vaccination.

Afghan media also quoted the report of the World Health Organization and stated that the main reason for the spread of this virus is the irregular movement of people and patients from Pakistan to Afghanistan.
