I hope everyone is well and enjoying their lives. There are many moments in our lives that give us happiness, and there are many moments that teach us lessons, and there are many moments that cause us harm. So now we have to bear all the ups and downs that come in our lives. That is why I am going to tell this story. I would like to thank @ashkhan, who organized this contest, for allowing us to write something.
Recently, there was a polio campaign in Pakistan, which was held from Monday to Friday, during which we were also a part of this polio campaign. Because we were part of the team, our council is Union Council No. 40, which includes about five villages and one Harappa city. Teams are formed between these councils, different types of teams go to different places and administer polio to children. Our duty was at the Harappa station bus stop, where we had to administer polio drops to all the children who came, those children who were below the age of five.
It was the fifth day of the polio campaign when we were on duty. This is the day when we only have to check the children to see if any child has missed the polio vaccination. Because the last three days are the campaign days, all the children are covered in these three days. But the next two days are our ketchup days so whoever has missed the polio vaccination should be given polio drops. It so happened that our officer who had come from Islamabad checked on us because he also had surveyed the area where the teams were stationed to see if the team was doing well or not. He was supposed to do a market survey, during which he came to us and checked us. He also checked all the children who were walking around to find out whether all the children had taken the polio vaccination or not.
Meanwhile, a guest woman came with two children, one was older than five years and the other was younger. When we checked them, we saw that they had not taken the polio vaccine because they had come from Faisalabad, where the guests had stopped somewhere on the way that the team could not reach and they were brought here in the same way. We stopped them and said that we would give your child drops. She was a little scared because she did not know whether this medicine was good for her or not. After all,e we do not buy anything from anyone in the market. That is why she did not want to give her child these polio drops because she wanted the worker who came to the house to say that we would give the drops, but this is our duty and we also have to fulfill it.
She was not giving us polio drops and our officers were also standing above. If we did not give her polio, we would have been very insulted here, so we tried our best and then she agreed to take the polio. But still, she first asked all the shopkeepers around whether these people sit here every day or not, then she went and got the confirmation and she sent her child with us to get the polio vaccine.
The problem was that if the child had been caught by the officer and he had checked whether the child had polio or not, then we would have been very insulted here and our counselor, who is our UCMO, who is in charge of us, would have been very insulted. Maybe he would have discharged us because this small mistake could decide the life of the child. So we thanked God that the woman agreed and gave her child polio drops.
