The fifth day of the sub-national drive is under way, with vaccination scheduled to run until November 8 and about 24 million under-fives targeted across Pakistan.
More than 22.1 million children were vaccinated against polio in the first four days of the drive, the NEOC said on Friday.
The sub-national campaign covers 97 selected districts and aims to reach about 24 million children under five.
