Polio Eradication Group Urges Continued Efforts to Eliminate Polio in Afghanistan

The Afghanistan Polio Eradication Organisation has stressed the need to continue the fight against the polio virus in the country as World Polio Day on October 24 approaches. In a message posted on the social media platform X, the organisation expressed appreciation for the commitment and efforts of frontline health workers, who through their sustained work help prevent the spread of the polio virus. These workers also strive to ensure that all children across the provinces are vaccinated. Continuing these vital efforts is essential so that Afghanistan can be freed from this dangerous disease and the health of future generations can be safeguarded.
