LAHORE: Another innocent child succumbed to the menace of measles as the death toll touched the mark of 54, here on Monday.
The 14-month child gave up to the outbreak at Children’s Hospital of the provincial capital. He belonged to the Rana Town area of the city.
The situation seems to have gone out of control of the authorities, who also seem least concerned to tackle the problem.
Last year, absence of vaccination was blamed on the surge of the issue, and now the indifferent approach of those at the helm of affairs seems to be the actual problem.
It maybe mentioned here the number of affected children in the province has reached the mark of 8,500.
