24. Impotence fears hit polio drive
By Ashfaq Yusufzai
BBC News, Peshawar
Health officials in Pakistan say they have failed to immunise over 160,000 children against polio
due to rumours the vaccine causes sexual impotence.
Parents in parts of northern Pakistan told the BBC news website they feared an quot;American
conspiracyquot; to cut the fertility of the next generation.
At least 39 cases of polio were reported in 2006, 15 of them in the North West Frontier Province
(NWFP) and the tribal areas in which only 20% of people are immunised. Worldwide 1,902
cases of polio were reported during the year, a recent WHO report said.
A WHO meeting in Geneva last October heard that children paralysed by polio around the world
were infected by viruses originating from Pakistan, Afghanistan, India and Nigeria.
Radio rumours
The main opposition to the drive in Pakistan came from local clerics who run illegal FM radio
channels in many NWFP districts and the tribal areas, say officials.
Amirullah Khan, a resident of NWFP's Swat district, quoted Maulana Fazlullah of a local FM
channel as telling his listeners the vaccination drive was quot;a conspiracy of the Jews and
Christians to stunt the population growth of Muslimsquot;.

• Health outcomes determined by multiple
factors and interventions
• Particularly key besides health:
law, education, work place, trade, armed
