A new Polio campaign kicked off in Tonj South County of Warrap State on Tuesday.

County supervisor James Mabior Deng told Don Bosco Radio that the
target group for Polio vaccination was children under five years of
age.

He said vaccinators started in Tonj Town and would move to the
surrounding payams and bomas over the next four days.

Mr Deng urged all parents and guardians with children aged bellow five
year to ensure that they were vaccinated.

He told parents and guardians that the vaccine was not harmful to the
children and advise them not to fear getting the vaccine for their
children.

Mr Deng added that the polio vaccinators would go house to house and
to market places.

He called on all parents to cooperate with vaccinators to get their
children protected against the crippling and life-threatening virus.
