Polio programme: let us declare victory and move on
Neetu Vashisht
Jacob Puliye
Abstract:
It was hoped that following polio eradication, immunisation could be stopped. However the synthesis of polio virus in 2002, made eradication impossible. It is argued that getting poor countries to expend their scarce resources on an impossible dream over the last 10 years was unethical.
