Authorities in the UK are set to re-launch a child vaccination campaign in London in response to a polio outbreak in the capital.<\/p>\n
British authorities are to re-launch efforts to see every child in London aged from 1 to 11 vaccinated against Polio after an outbreak of the disease last year.<\/p>\n
An initial campaign to see all children jabbed was started last year after the formerly extinct disease was found in the city\u2019s sewer system, with the virus thought to have possibly re-entered open-borders Britain from abroad.<\/p>\n
Despite this attempt to get the population most vulnerable to the disease vaccinated, uptake for the childhood polio jab in London remains well below the national average, with the country\u2019s National Health Service now set to renew efforts to get more children inoculated against the virus, which can cause paralysis and even death.<\/p>\n
\u201cUntil we reach every last child, we cannot be sure that we will not see a case of paralysis,\u201d The Telegraph reports Dr Vanessa Saliba of the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) as saying regarding the outbreak.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven a single case of paralysis from polio would be a tragedy as it is completely preventable,\u201d she continued. \u201cOnly by improving vaccination coverage across all communities can we ensure resilience against future disease threats.\u201d<\/p>\n
