A Preventable Disaster Struggling with Polio

Poliomyelitis, or polio is a contagious disease caused by a virus that predominantly targets children. It is spread through contaminated food and water destroying the nervous system and in severe instances causing total paralysis. Before mass immunization polio epidemics shocked countries, paralyzing tens of thousands of children annually. Poland teeters on the edge of extinction today due to global mass campaigns of immunization. The battle, however, is far from over as long as there remains a single infected child; children everywhere in the world are still vulnerable. This makes constant observation, education, and immunization a reality as never before. Doctors and medical personnel of Ajanta Hospital toil day and night to convince families about the need for total immunization. Pediatric counseling, health awareness camps, and public health activities are employed by the hospital to keep alive the robust message that "prevention is better than cure."
