چکیده

The present study focuses on “polio virus becomes stronger due to social conditions in Mardan”. Chi square and Gamma statistics are used for measuring association and direction of relationship between variables. A sample size of 110 respondents is derived through proportionate random sampling from the total population of refusal cases. A positive and significant relationship was observed "in vaccination is not good for health, religious taboos, quality of vaccines, side effects, decreases fertility, foreign agenda, prolongs campaign and a vaccine does not prevent paralysis". In light of the study findings, it is suggested that proper strategy of targeted approaches for educating the common people particularly refusers is needed. The misconception about the quality and side effects of the vaccines should be addressed through community seminars. The most important segment of the Pakhtun community is local clerics and imams. Special program should be devised to educate these clerics about the nature and usefulness of the vaccines and special messages should be developed to break the misconceived link of West and vaccines.
