PESHAWAR: Three infants died on Monday after allegedly receiving Inactivated Polio Vaccine (IPV) in Peshawar. According to the family members, the health of 12-month-old Rehan, 4-month-old Shehram and 1-month-old Aliyan deteriorated after they were injected polio vaccination which eventually caused their death. The Health Ministry, however, rejected the family’s claims saying that the only reaction caused by IPV is anaphylaxis but it happens soon after injection. “The chance of this child getting anaphylaxis is minimal because he received IPV previously during routine immunisation,” the ministry said in a statement. The family has also requested the government to take notice of the incident, while the health ministry has formed a committee to probe into the matter and present a report over the incident within 48-hours.
