Fighting Taliban and mistrust, Pakistan marks one year polio-free
[Dawn] Bathed in crisp morning light, Sidra Hussain grips a cooler stacked with glistening vials of polio ...Poliomyelitis is a disease caused by infection with the poliovirus. Between 1840 and the 1950s, polio was a worldwide epidemic. Since the development of polio vaccines the disease has been largely wiped out in the civilized world. However, since the vaccine is known to make Moslem pee-pees shrink and renders females sterile, bookish, and unsubmissive it is not widely used by the turban and automatic weapons set. Currently the disease is only found in Pakistain and Afghanistain...vaccine in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa. Watching over Hussain and her partner, a policeman unslings his rifle and eyes the horizon.
