LASHKARGAH (Pajhwok): Around 600,000 children would deprived of anti-polio vaccination due to security problems in southern Helmand province where a new polio case has detected, an official said Monday.

The views were expressed by Helmand public health director, Dr. Aminullah Abid, during the beginning of an anti-polio vaccination campaign today.

He said the Taliban have ordered that all the children should be vaccinated in mosques, something which was against the public health ministry policy.
