ISLAMABAD: 抖阴短视频鈥檚 King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSRelief) is helping Pakistan in preventing children from polio, the organization said in twitter post.

Earlier this month, a high-level delegation of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) and donor partners of the Lives and Livelihoods Fund (LLF) visited Pakistan where they met with Dr. Zafar Mirza, special assistant to the prime minister on national health services.

During that visit the LLF and IDB re-affirmed commitment to support Pakistan鈥檚 polio program.

鈥淭he LLF has prioritized the eradication of polio and contributed over $ 100 million to the Pakistan Polio Eradication Programme,鈥� a statement from Dr. Mirza鈥檚 office said on December 18.

鈥淲e appreciate the long-standing partnership with the Islamic Development Bank and the Lives and Livelihoods Fund collaborators. Over the years we have come to count on them to keep up against the fight for a polio-free Pakistan, Dr. Mirza added that 鈥渂eyond financial support, they have supported us in the advocacy to overcome religious refusals and highlighting vaccines efficacy and safety.鈥�

Last week, Pakistan completed a nationwide anti polio vaccination campaign where Mirza said in a statement on December 21, 2019 that polio workers had successfully vaccinated 99% of the targeted 39.52 million children across Pakistan.
