RIYADH - SABA
Yemen’s Health Minister Naser Baoom has held the Houthi armed militia responsible for the resurgence of infant polio which Yemen had been declared free from in 2006.
In a video call with the WHO and UNICEF offices in Yemen and the office of the regional representative of the WHO in Cairo, Baoom said today the spotted return of infant polio is “inevitably the result of those irresponsible Houthi rumors against vaccinations.”

Baoom said the Houthi “smear campaign is based on extremist religious edifications that do not take account of the disastrous effects of preaching.”
