F.P. report
ISLAMABAD: The first case of polio of the year 2019 was reported in Bajour district Saturday, according to a focal person of Prime Minister Imran Khan on the polio eradication Babar Atta.
"Sad News: The active circulation of the virus in the Bajour tribal district paralyzed another child while Pakistan reported its first polio case in 2019 from Khar. The child is 11 months old. Bajour has reported 6 cases of polio alone in the last 3 months, "he tweeted.
"This also justifies the steps I took last week during my visit to Bajour Agency in removing 7 polio officers for negligence in the performance of their duties. Bajour, like many other districts, has done nothing of the 2017-2018 year but has welcomed the fact that they had "zero" polio cases. "
In another tweet, he said, "The same goes for Lahore and Faisalabad as well. The circulation of poliovirus in wastewater is active in both cities but, for several years, they are in "Celebration" mode. My next goal will be to wake the administration of Rawalpindi, Lahore and Faisalabad. "
