In Nagaland, over 155,000 children in the age group of 0-5 years were administered oral polio vaccine today as part of the nationwide Pulse Polio immunization drive. The state-level launch of the Polio Immunization drive kicked off at the Urban Primary Health Center, Siekhazou in Kohima, where Principal Director of the Health and Family Welfare Department, Dr Ritu Thurr, administered the first two polio drops to a newborn baby girl.

Speaking at the program, Dr Thurr said immunization is one of the most effective methods for preventing vaccine-preventable diseases. He mentioned that the country has 13 vaccine-preventable diseases under the Universal Immunization Programme, launched by the Government of India, and vaccines are provided free of cost by the government. Dr Thurr highlighted that the country’s UIP is one of the largest public health intervention programs globally, targeting approximately 27 million infants and 30 million pregnant women.

Since India received a ‘Polio-free certification’ from the World Health Organization, along with the entire South-East Asia Region in March 2014, the country remains free of polio cases to date. Dr Thurr, however, mentioned that with wild polio virus cases continuing to be detected in neighboring countries, as a precautionary measure and to maintain immunity against such viruses, India provides routine immunization cover to all children. He also informed that the state has targeted 155,000 children and set up 1550 polio booths across the districts. Dr Thurr added that a door-to-door visit will be conducted on March 4 and 5 to ensure that the oral polio vaccine is administered to all children.
