Army to take over security of Polio teams

Army to take over security of Polio teams

After reading this article in DAWN news I felt satisfied on the fact that our government is realising the threat of this disease. Although it saddens me that Pakistan is amongst the three unfortunate countries where the disease remains, but as Pakistani I am in debt of WHO, other international health organisations, and polio worker who are risking their lives help us eradicate this disease from Pakistan.

According to the article Pakistan's Government has asked Armed forces to provide security to the polio teams in KPK and FATA. This will not only boost the morales of polio teams but make their visit more effective. My request to Pakistani media to contribute towards creating awareness towards this disease, So that we can get rid of this problem once and for all.
