WHAT IS POLIO?

Polio is a highly infectious disease that most commonly affects children under the age of 5.


No cure is available, but polio is preventable with a vaccine.
Only two countries remain endemic—Pakistan and Afghanistan.
We have reduced cases by 99.9% since 1988.
Until we end polio forever, every child is at risk.
