Barkatullah;
South Asia is home to the world’s largest youth population. Even though all South Asian countries have ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child , there is as yet little awareness in the region of the importance of this Convention at various levels including policy planning, activism and legal reform in the ongoing effort to achieve children’s rights . Currently the existed pandemic ( COVID-19 ) has weekend South Asian countries economy as the World Bank warned. In these challenging times children lives have been more strenuous and in threats as coronavirus disrupt immunization drive . However, disruptions to immunization programs across South Asia ,due to the ongoing pandemic are upending attempts to vaccinate millions of children against deadly disease . The pandemic has interrupted vaccine supply chains and left families fearful of attending clinics , creating another looming health crisis in the region where 4.5 million children were not fully immunized against diseases such as measles. , diphtheria and polio , which have been the immortal infections for the children in South Asia . In the modern times , South Asia could face yet another health emergency if children across the region does not receive their life saving vaccine shots , UNICEF warned . The South Asia is also home to two of the last polio endemic countries in the world , Afghanistan and Pakistan. Many of the health facilities throughout the South Asia regions, where millions of children are normally vaccinated , have been closed and outreach session have been suspended . UNICEF vigorously recommended that , where immunization compaign are suspended , goverments begin rigorous planning now to intensify immunization activities . With lockdown in place as a part of the novel coronavirus response , children are initially vaccinated by the diseases as they have been entirely emerged in South Asian countries . I appeal to the South Asian countries to get assure in this regard and convince to UNICEF to work on children’s lives in South Asia .
