Islamabad: A comprehensive anti-polio vaccination campaign is set to begin across the country on Monday, targeting children up to five years old. This initiative aims to protect the young population from the debilitating effects of polio, a preventable disease that can cause severe paralysis.



According to Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, during this campaign, special health department teams will conduct door-to-door visits to administer vaccine drops, ensuring all eligible children are reached. The drive is part of a broader effort to eradicate polio from the nation, focusing on accessibility and full coverage to prevent any new cases of the virus.
