Vaccine scientist Dr @PeterHotez & @Rotary’s @JohnHewko reflect. One can only hope.

Let’s hope!

Community mobilisation is the key.

How Rotary decided to eradicate polio.

The deadly opposition to polio immunisation.

Tantalisingly close.

@gatesfoundation ‏reports progress, gives credit to our client @Rotary @RotaryEndPolio.

Fascinating papers from Journal of Infectious Diseases.

*gulp*

Also much discussion of polio eradication.

G20 backs ending polio.

How we fail to eliminate diseases.

Glad to be working with @RotaryEndPolio on this!

The last stumbling block.

Well told.

Much of interest here, especially: "In 1988, when the global campaign was launched to end polio, there were 350,000 new cases each year. Last year, there were 37."

One more case of polio confirmed in Afghanistan - but eradication is close.

Glad to be involved with global eradication.

I am proud to be part of this.
