Meanwhile back in Sudan.... The World Health Organisation said it will redouble efforts to vaccinate Sudanese children against polio following an outbreak of the disease in the war-torn western region of Darfur. Eleven cases of the disease have been detected this year, including in the capital, the WHO said. "Armed conflict has contributed to the re-infection by the wild polio virus in Darfur that has now spread to the capital city, Khartoum", said WHO Representative Guido Sabatinelli on Wednesday. A WHO statement said Sudan had been polio-free since April 2001, but that cross-border movement between Chad and Sudan re-introduced the virus. It said the "conflict in the Darfur region ... where the first polio case made its appearance, prevented the immunization of all children under the age of five in earlier campaigns."... terra.net.lb
