India Beats Deadly Virus - Polio
The project manager at WHO-NPSP, Dr Hamid Jafari said "complacency will be India's biggest enemy. Second biggest threat is import. In 2010, India exported the polio virus to Tajikistan, where around 350 children were affected. The virus then spread to Russia. Even in Congo the Indian strain established itself and is still in circulation", as reported by TOI.
WHO Director General, Margaret Chan said "India's success is arguably its greatest public health achievement and has provided a global opportunity to push for the end of polio." While Anthony Lake, Executive Director, UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) attributed India's remarkable progress to strong leadership at a national and state level, which resulted in a comprehensive polio eradication program. He said "India's achievement is proof positive that we can eradicate polio even in the most challenging environments in fact, it is only by targeting these areas that we can defeat this evil disease," as reported by IBN live.
