World Polio Month is October

William Peacock OAM PHF x 8 —

Polio Kola Cousin found his way to a new home in Germany with PRIP Holger Knaack and his wife Susanne as a symbol of One Day. One Focus: Ending Polio24 October. Join us for World Polio Day as global health experts and partners share our progress on the road to polio eradication.

World Polio Month is October and with October the 24th World Polio Day we are as Rotarians asked to contribute by holding an event, so we Donate to World Polio Day to The Rotary Foundation Polio Fund.

Clubs have organised events and Worlds Greatest Meals from a coffee with friends to lunch and dinners.

We are so close to eradication Polio. The Two Endemic Countries Pakistan and Afghanistan have recorded only one each since February 2021. Rotary and its Partners are making History, please be part of it this D9560

No Child Should Suffer from a Vaccine-Preventable Disease. 

The Pain and Disability Can Last a Lifetime.

I am from a generation who has witnessed the devastating effects of polio. When I discovered how close we were to eradicating polio, I was very motivated to be a part of this movement. It is so rare when you can accomplish something so spectacular.
