Renewed donor support critical to ending polio after recent rise in cases and COVID-19 setbacks
GENEVA, 10 June 2021 – Today, the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) will launch the
Polio Eradication Strategy 2022-2026: Delivering on a Promise, to overcome the remaining challenges to ending polio, including setbacks caused by COVID-19. While polio cases have fallen 99.9% since 1988, polio remains a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) and persistent barriers to reaching every child with polio vaccines and the pandemic have contributed to an increase in polio cases. Last year, 1226 cases of all forms of polio were recorded compared to 138 in 2018.
