pointed out the importance of the fact that on July 24, “Nigeria passed an important milestone marking an entire year without a single new wild poliovirus case,” marking a “remarkable achievement in the global effort to eradicate polio.” But, to eradicate the disease everywhere, “all countries must strengthen immunization service delivery, address gaps in disease surveillance and do more to reach children missed by vaccination programs,” Dr. Frieden wrote. http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/21/opinions/frieden-nigeria-polio/index.html
