A mass polio vaccination campaign is being planned in Burma after a 7-month-old baby was found to have the virus. It’s the first case there for three years. Vivien Marsh has this report.

Burma had been

on the point of

being declared free of polio, a highly

contagious

virus that can lead to paralysis and which is spread mainly through contaminated food and water. Four years ago, the Burmese government

immunise

d nearly 7 million children. Since a drive to

eliminate

polio began more than 20 years ago, the number of cases has dropped by 99% worldwide. A team from the World Health Oganisation is already in Burma to

work out

how to stop its spreading again there.

利比亚领袖卡扎菲上校(Muammar Gaddafi)呼吁他的支持者走向街头，袭击他所说的反对他执政的“蟑螂”。在国家电视台发表讲话时，他敦促忠诚的利比亚人追赶反政府抗议者，将他们逮捕并移交给安全力量。

“你希望美国来到这里，像占领阿富汗和索马里，占领巴基斯坦和伊拉克那样占领我们的领土吗？那是你们想要的吗？如果你们希望这样……如果你们不希望这样的结果，那么，请走上街头，追赶他们，抓捕他们。”

卡扎菲上校表示，在利比亚起义的任何人都将被处决。
