• ‘No child should die of preventable diseases including pneumonia’The Adamawa State Primary Healthcare Development Agency has said four polio cases have been recorded in the state. While announcing the outbreak, yesterday, to mark the 2021 World Polio Day in Yola, the state capital, APHDA Executive Director, Dr. Sulaiman Bashir, disclosed that the new cases were caused by the circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus.
According to him, three cases were recorded in Yola South Council, while Gombi had one. In spite of the giant strides recorded in polio eradication globally, more than 100 million children remain at risk of paralysis by vaccine-derived poliovirus. She said the best way to protect children from polio is by increasing population immunity through routine immunisation and ensuring strong surveillance systems are in place to rapidly detect any cases.
This kind of headline is beneath d standards of a reputable newspaper like Guardian. The headline should be “Adamawa recorded four cases of vaccine derived polio virus”. cVDPV (circulating vaccine derived PV) is different from wild polio virus (WPV) which has been eradicated!!
