Two drops for life. pulse polio vaccination on tomorrow 29th January.

Pulse #Polio is an immunisation campaign established by the government of India to eliminate poliomyelitis (polio) in India by vaccinating all children under the age of five years against the polio virus. The project fights poliomyelitis through a large-scale pulse vaccination program and monitoring for polio cases.
The Pulse Polio dates in 2016 were 17 January and 21 February on Sundays.
History In India, vaccination against polio started in 1978 with Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI). By 1984, it covered around 40% of infants, giving three doses of OPV to each.
In 1985, the Universal Immunisation Program (UIP) was launched to cover all the districts of the country. UIP became a part of child survival and safe motherhood program (CSSM) in 1992 and Reproductive and Child Health Program (RCH) in 1997. This program led to a significant increase in coverage, up to 95%. The number of reported cases of polio also declined from 28,757 during 1987 to 3,265 in 1995.
In 1995, following the Global Polio Eradication Initiative of the World Health Organization (1988), India launched Pulse Polio immunisation program with Universal Immunization Program which aimed at 100% coverage.
