According to Expanded Program for Immunization (EPI), FATA, a target of 700,000 children, below five years of age has been set for immunization against the crippling disease.
More than 2000 anti-polio teams have been constituted for the purpose to immunize the tribal kids.
In South and North Waziristan agencies the campaign might not be carried out owing to security reasons that would deprive more than 200,000 from immunization drops.
