DESCRIPTION:

Since 1988, Rotary International has sponsored World Polio Day with a focus on eradicating the disease from the earth for good. The world was doing pretty good at eliminating this preventable disease until the 2020s, when anti-vaxxers, spurred by conspiracy theories and junk science coupled with lockdowns due to COVID-19, made keeping up with immunizations difficult. As a result, polio has been detected in the United States again and is spreading among the unvaccinated.

World Polio Day is part of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, supported by the International Rotary, the World Health Organization [WHO], UNICEF, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
