My name is Abdul Hamid from Dand district resident of Rambasi village. In the first days, I didn’t know that my son is polio, I had a lot of hope but now he is paralyzed and one of his legs is short and still ill. we didn’t pay attention to him to get him to the hospital. Polio is a very serious disease, it reduces the life span of a human being 100 years to 20 years. This means that if one part of one’s body does not function properly and one is in trouble it’s not life. We suffer a lot because of our son. If all my possessions are gone, like land and these two cows I want him to recover.

Some people take their children to be vaccinated and most do not care about their lives. I tell people that vaccine. which has been experimentally tested by internationals scientists is very useful for the future of our children. I urge all people to get vaccinated so that they do not become disabled like my child.

“Please, leave your work one day take your children to the vaccination center”. I urge all the villagers that the vaccinators who have come to the street, to the house, and to the mosques. please treat them properly and get children vaccinated in order to live properly
