End Polio Now
October 24 is the day of the fight against polio. Previous actions of Rotary International and other partners in order to eradicate the disease have achieved tremendous results. Almost 99% of the disease is eradicated. There are just a few regions of underdeveloped countries where the virus still exists, in just four countries: Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. Epidemic of polio still occurs in some countries of Asia and Africa, but Rotary International forecasts that over the next three to four years polio will be rooted in those territories.
End Polio is the largest project of Rotary International!
