Why should we support the Pulse Polio Immunization Programme? The last case of polio in India was reported in 2011 in Howrah district of West Bengal.
Thereafter no polio case has been reported in our country.
On 27th March, 2014, India was declared as a “non-endemic” country for polio. In
simple words, India was declared polio free in 2014.
It was a historic day as far as an Indian citizen is concerned. This great achievement has
been made possible in India by successfully implementing the Universal Immunization
Programme (UIP) and the Pulse Polio Programme.. This information will be helpful
considering the fact that, Pulse Polio Immunization programme of 2016 is due in a few
days time. We need to strive for GLOBAL ERADICATION because POLIO SOMEWHERE
can be POLIO ANYWHERE/EVERYWHERE.
What is Polio? Polio aka Poliomyelitis is a deadly incurable disease. It is caused by a virus which
transmits from person to person through contaminated food and water. Once infected,
the virus affects the motor nerves and other parts of the central nervous system which
finally ends up in paralysis of one or more limbs. It usually affects young children. As the
disease is incurable, prevention is our best bet. Vaccination is the only proven method
by which this disease can be prevented.
What is Pulse Polio Immunization Programme?

Programme? Pulse Polio activity

Immunization of children in transit
The Pulse Polio Immunization is a vaccination programme launched with the aim of
eradicating Polio from this world. The Government of India conducted the first ever
round of Pulse Polio Immunization on 9th December 1995 and 20th January 1996. The
beneficiaries of the first 2 rounds of Pulse Polio Immunization in India were all children
under the age of 3 yeas, irrespective of their immunization status. All children under 3
years of age were given 2 drops of oral polio vaccine on those Pulse Polio Immunization
days. Later on, the age group of the beneficiaries was increased to 5 years, based on the
recommendation of World Health Organization (WHO). The pulse polio immunization
programme was launched to supplement the UIP. No other vaccine preventable
diseases had an additional national level programme aimed at it’s eradication in those
days.
Now, you might be thinking that why Polio alone is given so much emphasis
compared to the other vaccine preventable diseases? Here is why :-
With the help of vaccines, we have eradicated Smallpox from this world. Polio is one of
the few diseases that can be completely eradicated from this world. Polio can be
eradicated by vaccination as was done for small pox. Polio vaccines used in Pulse Polio
Immunization are oral polio vaccines. The ease of administration of these oral vaccines
makes it possible for large scale simultaneous application. It can be even given in the
remotest parts of a community. These two facts are the reasons why healthcare
[IPPI 2016-DTFI] January 13, 2016
D i s t r i c t M e d c i a l a n d H e a l t h
Page 5
providers and WHO are giving such high emphasis on polio eradication compared to
other diseases.
Today, pulse polio programme in India has become the largest public health campaign
conducted in a country. All children up to the age of 5 years are given 2 drops of oral
polio vaccine nationwide irrespective of their previous immunization status. Two such
pulse vaccination days are conducted four to six weeks apart, usually in the months of
November to February.
Why should I give repeated doses of polio vaccine
to my child?
If you’re familiar with the UIP, you’ll realise that every child has to take 5 doses of oral
polio vaccine before the age of 5 years. In addition to that, the Pulse Polio Immunization
programme vaccinates every child two more times every year. So, the obvious question
that rises in everyone’s mind will be related to the repeated dosing of oral polio vaccine.
Repeated doses of vaccination do not have any adverse affects. In fact, repeated doses
helps to increase the level of protection of your child from polio infection. Wild polio
virus are still at large in many parts of the world including Pakistan and Afghanistan.
There are chances of re-emergence of polio infection in India if we stop the pulse polio
programme.
Oral polio vaccines might not be able to impart enough level of immunity in some
children. Such children would be either immune compromised or will be suffering from
repeated diarrhoea or severe malnutrition. Such children can be protected from polio
virus by giving the injectable polio vaccine (IPV) or by making the whole community
immune against polio. The latter is being done through pulse polio programme by
improving the “herd immunity”. By making sure that your child is given repeated doses
of polio vaccine, you are indirectly helping those children who are at risk of developing
polio even after they get vaccinated.
The anti-vaccine ideologists who boast of their children not getting infected with polio
viruses should realise that their children are being protected from the disease only
[IPPI 2016-DTFI] January 13, 2016
D i s t r i c t M e d c i a l a n d H e a l t h

because of the “herd immunity” developed by national programmes like UIP and Pulse
Polio Immunization.
Soon this basket of vaccines is being expanded soon with introduction of IPV and
ROTAVIRUS VACCINE.
Is my child eligible for Pulse Polio Immunization?
Oral polio vaccine (OPV) given in the Pulse Polio Immunization programme are actually
extra doses of polio vaccine given to children in India. These vaccines do not replace the
oral polio vaccines given during the routine immunization programme (UIP). Please read
the following points carefully to decide whether you need to participate in the Pulse
Polio Immunization programme or not.
1. All children up to the age of 5 years are eligible. This includes newborn babies too.
2. You are supposed to give oral polio vaccines to your child (below 5 years) even if your child had
received the same oral polio vaccines the previous day as part of the UIP. In short, there is no
minimum interval between Pulse Polio Immunization dose and scheduled OPV doses.
3. Bring your child to the Pulse Polio Immunization special booth even if your child has mild fever,
cough or cold. These conditions are not a problem as far as oral vaccines are concerned.
4. You may not bring your child for Pulse Polio Immunization doses if your child is suffering from a
known “immune compromised” condition or is taking immuno-suppressant medicines like
steroids.
What to expect on Pulse Polio Immunization days?
Special immunization booths will be setup all around your locality. These booths may
function in either Anganwadis, health clubs, private and public clinics,
libraries,schools,health sub centres etc.
If you find it difficult to find a Pulse Polio Immunization booth, contact your ASHA or
AWW or MPHA(ANM) (multi purpose health assitant) or your nearest health centre.
Transit booths will be in place at all railway stations, bus stations, .
You will find two or more trained volunteers at every such booths where the Pulse Polio
Immunization are being carried out.

You just need to take your under 5-year-old child to any one of these booths to get
vaccinated. After administering the 2 crucial drops of OPV to your child, the healthcare
volunteers will put a mark on your child’s little finger with a marker. This is to make sure
that your child has been vaccinated during the Pulse Polio Immunization programme.
You can clarify any doubts related to the vaccination programme by asking the
volunteers. They will inform you about the second round of Pulse Polio Immunization
(usually conducted one month after the first round).
Pulse Polio Immunization booths will function from 8 am to 5 pm on 17th January (first
round) and 21st February (second round). The transit booths will function till 8 pm.
Why conduct Pulse Polio Immunization even after
India has been declared Polio free?
One must understand that the transmission of polio virus is still going on many parts of
the world. India is particularly at high risk of re-infection with the polio virus. This is
because of it’s close proximity with Pakistan and Afghanistan where polio cases are still
at large. India was declared a polio free nation only very recently. Before that time, there
would have been free transmission of polio virus from India to other parts of the world.
This is true considering the large number of Indian citizens working in other countries.
Therefore, chances of re-infection through the same route is possible. Programmes like
routine and pulse polio immunization have to be continued until this deadly incurable
disease is eradicated globally.
Two drops for Life In a few days time, you will hear mic announcements, watch TV commercials and read
newspaper notifications about the biggest health programme in the world. Make sure
that you participate in this programme and help the coming generations from the
deadly polio virus.
