world polio update

This Rotary year, with 5 months just completed, has seen continued decline in the number of Wild Poliovirus type 1 in the calendar year over year figures, however we must continue the fight through the development of new methods to meet the evolving threats.  This war is not over!  
 
Shortfalls in IPV supply globally have left more than 40 countries without sufficient IPV supply to vaccinate all children through their routine immunization systems.  Fractional dose IPV is an innovation that could help address this challenge.  Click here for more information on fractional dose.  To get your weekly polio eradication update - go to http://polioeradication.org/polio-today/polio-now/this-week/.
