The caretaker government of Pakistan has decided to launch a phase-wise ‘special anti-polio’ campaign in November, sources said on Wednesday. The drive which is expected to be launched later this month will be the last drive of 2023. Pakistan has decided to launch a ‘special anti-polio campaign’ drive after a sample of the crippling disease was found in sewage lines of 31 districts of the country. Sources within the health ministry said that the anti-polio drive will be carried out in two phases including the first from November 20 to 24.—INP
