The Ministry of Public Health and Population has denounced Houthi terrorist militia's practices of organizing symposium banning vaccination.

Sponsoring such fables is a risk of the future of children in Yemen in the areas under Houthi terrorist militia's control, said the ministry in a release issued on Thursday.

The ministry confirmed that its duty is spreading health media message and sending the accurate information to people within precautionary work to stop eruption of diseases and pandemics led by vaccines.

By virtue of vaccines, many pandemics and diseases, like smallpox, have been got rid of, said the ministry, adding that Yemen has been announced free of polio in 2009 but this disease rose again in Sa'adah Province over Houthi militia's banning vaccination.

The ministry reminded the letter it received from World Health Organization and UNICEF on 2020 on fear of negative results of not allowing organizing vaccination campaigns against polio after the disease erupted in Sa'adah.
