This Lancet editorial suggests that the vaccination campaign was fake: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...
This is the campaign that is usually referred to when people talk about the fake vaccination campaign to locate bin Laden, but it was conducted in Abottabad, Pakistan. Are you referring to a different campaign that was conducted in Afghanistan?
In the past (PRE CIA PROGRAM) in other countries it has been that the foreign aid workers have been assassinated because their program:
* is a sterilization conspiracy
* corrupts the young women hired and trained to locally administer the vaccines
* was proselytizing and spying on the locals
And I don't fault them for thinking any of that just look at the nutjobs in the west who ramble on about vaccines.
It was a fake campaign because they gave one out of three doses and then left.
The connection is bullshit. Afghanistan has a long and proud history of killing polio vaccination workers. Also, any other aid worker. Especially women.

I was in Afghanistan for over two years over two deployments. Outside of the cities Afghans:
1. Don't know who Osama Bin Laden is.
2. Don't know that he was killed.
3. Don't know that the CIA ran a (not fake, real) vaccination campaign to locate Bin Laden. Or what the CIA is for that matter, or what or who the US is.
4. Barely know that there is a central government, who runs it, or what city is the capital.
They only know their local clan and the immediate local leader.
They're not running around scared of CIA agents they are scared of all outsiders and any outsider who can provide relief or comfort that the local leader cannot instantly becomes the enemy of the local leader.
This is also true in Pakistan and several African nations.
