Clarification: '1350 vaccinated against polio in S Waziristan'

The story published on November 21 titled ‘1,350 vaccinated against polio in S Waziristan’ incorrectly reported children in South Waziristan Agency were inoculated. These children were in fact vaccinated in North Waziristan Agency as reported in the paper on November 19 in ‘Seven new cases as N Waziristan polio drive restarts’. The error is regretted and the story has been taken offline.
