This all exercise is futile. No matter what we do there will be some gap. We should change parents attitude towards their kids.

All other measures, In March 2015, authorities in Peshawar, detained 471 people and charged them with “endangering public security”.
The local government freed them once they pledged in writing to vaccinate their children.
Pakistan accounts for the vast majority of polio cases globally and is one of only three countries where it remains endemic.
In 2014, polio cases in the country reached a 14 year high of 306. Nine new cases have been detected so far this year.
April 7 marked one year since the onset of paralysis of the most recent case of wild polio-virus in the Middle East.
According to “Polio Eradication Org” in Pakistan, in Peshawar district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. This most recent case had onset of paralysis on 17 March. The total number of WPV1 cases for 2015 is now 21 (and remains 306 for 2014).
No new type 2 circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV2) cases were reported in the past week. The most recent case had onset of paralysis on 13 December. The number of cVDPV cases reported in 2014 remains 21. No cases have been reported in 2015.
Efforts are ongoing to strengthen the implementation of the ‘low season’ emergency operations plan. Strong, functional Emergency Operations Centres (EOCs) are now operational both at the federal and provincial levels. Strategies are focusing on clearly identifying reasons for missed children, and putting in place area-specific mechanisms to overcome area-specific challenges. Independent monitoring is being strengthened and rolled out across wider geographic areas to provide a clearer assessment of quality and associated gaps.
Activities are focusing on known infected areas, but also areas deemed at high-risk but which have not reported polio cases. Environmental surveillance indicates widespread transmission of the virus, not just in known infected areas but also in areas without cases. Environmental surveillance is proving to be an instrumental supplemental surveillance tool enabling a clearer epidemiological picture.
