A high-level delegation of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) has concluded an official visit to Pakistan to review the strategies in place for vaccinating children that remain unreached in the polio-endemic districts of the country's northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province, Pakistani Health Ministry said.
An environmental sample collected from Karachi has tested positive for the wild poliovirus, the Pakistan Health Ministry said.
