Thanks go to everyone working to eradicate polio.
And if you should be wondering why it has not been eradicated yet; you may blame the CIA - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_fake_vaccination_campaign_in_Pakistan

We are on the verge of making #polio the second human disease to be consigned to history.
Decades ago, humanity bridged geopolitical and geographic borders to end smallpox.
Let's do the same for polio. Let's finish the job.

- Polio mainly affects children under five and can cause irreversible paralysis or death.
- Global vaccination campaigns have reduced wild poliovirus cases by over 99% in the last 35 years.
- Any missed child is a riskโgaps in immunization can allow the virus to return.

- Ensure every child in your care is fully immunized on schedule (including boosters).
