Five-day national polio eradication drive kicked off on Monday to administer polio and vitamin A drops to 18.6 million children up to the age of five years.
The workers of the anti-polio vaccination campaign will be provided with the necessary protective gear against coronavirus infection, and will be following all WHO recommended protocols to keep themselves and others safe from Covid-19.
The anti-polio drive, which started in Sindh, will administer the vaccine to 9.4 million children.
During the campaign, polio teams will go door-to-door and administer drops to children less than five years of age in all tehsils and union councils of the districts, Punjab Health Department spokesperson stated.
