ATTOCK:
It is indeed a sad fact that while the world is struggling with the scourge of Covid-19, the country is also facing the menace of polio which has been eradicated all over the world except Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The anti-polio campaign is launched in various cities of Pakistan from time to time but social and religious taboos further compounded by illiterate family members pose many challenges to these health workers.
In this regard, around 0.3 million children up to the age of five years will be administered polio drops from June, Attock Commissioner Ali Anan Qamar announced on Monday
