Contributing factors to declining vaccination campaign quality and resurgence of polio cases in Quetta block, Pakistan
Introduction: Implementation of supplementary immunization activities (SIAs) delivering oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) to children under 5 years of age is a key strategy for interruption of poliovirus transmission. Quetta block (Quetta, Pishin, Chaman, and Killa Abdullah districts), which has the largest number of children under 5 years in Balochistan province, is a core reservoir for wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) in Pakistan. This study examined …
Estimating proportions of missed children and reasons for non-vaccination following implementation of “reaching the unreached” multiantigen immunization campaign—south Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, Ju…
During January 2022–June 2023, Pakistan reported 21 Wild Polio Virus 1 (WPV1) cases, all of which occurred within districts in the south Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province. In May 2023, a special immunization campaign was conducted to reach all children under 5 years of age within 69 high-risk union councils (UCs) in six districts of south KP. The campaign comprised of three rounds, each lasting 8 days, that provided bivalent oral poliovirus vaccin…
Understanding barriers to stool adequacy
Introduction: Pakistan's acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance system is an essential part of efforts to eradicate poliomyelitis, as Pakistan and Afghanistan are the only countries where wild poliovirus remains endemic. The two primary performance indicators for AFP surveillance are the non-polio AFP rate for children aged <15 years and stool adequacy, defined as the percentage of AFP cases for which two timely stool samples arrive at the la…
