A nationwide scheme has begun on Dartmoor to conserve the country's dozen rarest breeds of horse. The Rare Breeds Survival Trust began collecting semen form 10 Dartmoor ponies on Widecombe-in-the-Moor on Wednesday. About 1, 000 stallions from rare breeds across the UK will be evaluated over the next five to eight years. The programme was launched a year ago, after the foot-and-mouth outbreak put many breeds at risk of dying out. Vulnerable breed : So far, £750, 000 of the £2. 5m target has been raised. The trust hopes to create semen banks for each rare breed to protect against future threats to the bloodline. Dartmoor ponies are categorised as "vulnerable" by the trust, with many bloodlines in danger. 1, record 6, English, - vulnerable%20breed

In 1974, when the Expanded Programme on Immunization was launched by the World Health Organization(WHO), less than 5% of the world's children were immunized against the six initial target diseases-diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis(whooping cough), polio, measles, and tuberculosis-during their first year of life. Up till then, immunization programmes were largely restricted to industrialized countries, and even then only partially implemented. By 1990, and again in the most recent statistics(after a slight interim drop in coverage rates), almost 80% of the 130 million children born each year were immunized before their first birthday. 3, record 7, English, - Expanded%20Programme%20on%20Immunization
