Pakistan has reported a total of 50 polio cases this year, with the latest case detected in the district of Tank in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. This brings attention to the ongoing challenges faced by the country in eradicating the infectious disease.
Both Pakistan and Afghanistan remain the only two countries in the world where the spread of polio has not been halted. The rise in polio cases has been a significant setback to Pakistan's efforts to become a polio-free nation.
