    Polio workers give polio vaccine drops to a child as a policeman stands guard during a vaccination campaign in Peshawar

    Sun, 30 Mar 2014 11:45 AM

    Polio workers give polio vaccine drops to a child as a policeman stands guard during a vaccination campaign in Peshawar, the capital of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province March 30, 2014. Pakistan's volatile northwestern city of Peshawar is the largest reservoir of endemic polio viruses in the world, the World Health Organization said early this year, amid concerns over continuing violence against polio vaccination teams. In Pakistan, Taliban commanders have forbidden vaccination teams access in some areas. A handful of religious leaders have also denounced the campaign as a plot to sterilize Muslim children. The rhetoric has fueled violence against the vaccination teams. Many teams travel only with police protection. Last year there were more than 30 attacks on polio teams.
