Nigeria sees no wild polio cases for one year
July Birthdays

July 16th Reg McDaniel Kelly Lewis July
22nd Doreen Bruner
Today marks one year since Nigeria last reported
a polio case caused by wild poliovirus, putting
the country on the brink of eradicating the
paralyzing disease. The last case was reported on
24 July 2014 in the northern state of Kano. If no
cases are reported in the coming weeks, the World
Health Organization is expected to remove Nigeria
from the list of countries where polio is
endemic, leaving just two Afghanistan and
Pakistan. Nigeria is the last polio-endemic
country in Africa. The continent is poised to
reach its own first full year without any illness
from the virus on 11 August. Every Rotarian in
the world should be proud of this achievement,
says Rotary International President K.R.
Ravindran. We made history. We have set Africa
on course for a polio-free future. But we have
not yet reached our goal of a polio-free world.
Raising funds and awareness and advocating with
your government are more crucial than
ever. Progress in Nigeria has come from many
measures, including strong domestic and
international financing, the commitment of
thousands of health workers, and new strategies
that reached children who had not been immunized
earlier because of a lack of security in the
northern states. Rotarys commitment has been
the number one reason for the recent success in
Nigeria, says Dr. Tunji Funsho, chair of
Rotarys Nigeria PolioPlus Committee. We have
infected political leaders with this commitment.
The government has demonstrated this with
political support and financial and human
resources. And that went down the line from the
federal level, to the state, to the local
governments.
