...Poliomyelitis is a disease caused by infection with the poliovirus. Between 1840 and the 1950s, polio was a worldwide epidemic. Since the development of polio vaccines the disease has been largely wiped out in the civilized world. However, since the vaccine is known to make Moslem pee-pees shrink and renders females sterile, bookish, and unsubmissive it is not widely used by the turban and automatic weapons set. Currently the disease is only found in Pakistain and Afghanistain...
drops administered to their children and misbehaving with vaccinators during the catch-up campaign being carried out in the area to cover the ’missed children’.

Two teams of polio workers were embroiled in an unpleasant situation in the limits of Hali Road and A-section cop shoppes of Latifabad taluka. Zahid was taken into custody from Waheed Square while Shoaib and Ashraf from the same family were arrested from Iqbal Colony Unit-12, Latifabad, respectively by Hali Road and A-section police.

According to Latifabad Assistant Commissioner Faraz Siddiqui, union committee medical officer (UCMO) Dr Imam Bux was manhandled by Shoaib and Ashraf when he insisted for administration of polio drops in the presence of area incharge and other polio workers. Both were taken into custody and detained at A-section cop shoppe of Latifabad for misbehaving and manhandling the UCMO. Siddiqui confirmed that Zahid misbehaved with polio team workers in Hali Road cop shoppe’s area and he was also detained.

According to A-section cop shoppe SHO Latifabad Mujtaba Sheikh, Shoaib and Ashraf told police that polio team workers were insisting for administration of polio drops while they had been going through a trauma after death of their paternal mother. They said they were willing to get children in their family inoculated.

#1 I had always thought that I would be the last generation to go through school (1950s) with classmates who had withered arms and legs from polio.

Apparently I am wrong. But what sort of parent would wish this awful, 100% preventable plague on their children???

#2 The kind of parent that sends off young Alam and Noori to the mullah to learn why it's expedient to extinguish their freedoms, their youth and their lives in the service of a dead man's book.
