Use of oral polio vaccine for polio eradication.
Copyright policy )Use of oral polio vaccine for polio eradication.
The experience in three of the world's six WHO Regions (the Americas, the European and the Western Pacific Regions) shows that OPV is the right choice for stopping wild poliovirus transmission. Polio can be eradicated by carrying out SIAs to supplement routine vaccination and by placing added emphasis on reaching every child during every polio round. Monovalent OPV will be key tool in helping us to achieve the goal of polio eradication. The task of global eradication of poliomyelitis is uphill but well within our reach. A strong will and political commitment by the Government of India and effective contributions by each one of us will make our nation polio-free world in the near future.
