Polio, Vaccine, Cultural Beliefs
Polio is one of the serious fatal diseases which is pervading rapidly in Pakistan. It has become one of the major health issues in Pakistan. Though, the vaccines are available to prevent polio, the cultural and religious belief of the people in Pakistan is a big hindrance in the way towards polio-free Pakistan. As a result of which, more children are victimized by polio in Pakistan. Therefore, it is crucial to make efforts to prevent polio cases in the children by addressing the causes and offering acceptable solutions to work on.
