On Sunday, August 22, 2021, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya declared that Afghan returnees will be vaccinated against polio for free as a preventive precaution against the wild polio virus.

As a precautionary action against the Wild Polio Virus, we have chosen to vaccinate Afghanistan returnees with free Polio Vaccine (OPV & IPV). Mandaviya congratulated the Health Team for their efforts to protect public health and tweeted a snapshot of a vaccination push at the Delhi International Airport.

It’s worth noting that polio is still widespread in only two countries in the world: Afghanistan and Pakistan.
