The vaccination department in the ministry of heath has announced the reappearance of one case of polio in the Sharia area in south Darfur.
Program co-coordinator, Dr. Samira Mohamed Osman, said the case was reported last September after the virus reached the area from Chad.
She said the department will organize a vaccination campaign nationwide this month, to be followed by another campaign in November and December.
