The officials of Ghazni Hospital announced the registration of the first positive case of polio in the country

Ghazni seminary hospital in Afghanistan has reported a positive case of polio virus. This is the first positive case of this disease in 2024 in this country.

According to a reliable source in Ghazni seminary hospital, the infected person is a three-year-old child living in the first district of Ghazni city. Meanwhile, six positive cases of polio virus were registered in Afghanistan last year.

This news is published in a situation where the officials of the Taliban, including the administrative deputy of the head of the vice-minister of this group, had recently claimed that the disease has disappeared in all parts of Afghanistan.

According to many health experts, Taliban officials should pay special attention to this new report. Polio is a serious disease that can cause permanent disability in children.

Extensive vaccination and careful monitoring of the process of eradicating this virus are the basic solutions to deal with this health problem.
