Comment if you would like to join us in person. PolioPlus stands as a beacon of hope in the global fight against polio, representing a commitment to a world where every child can grow up free from the threat of this crippling disease. Through unwavering dedication, PolioPlus has brought the world to the brink of eradicating polio, a feat once thought impossible. It is not just a vaccination campaign; it's a movement that unites communities, governments, and volunteers in a shared mission to protect future generations. Every vaccine administered, every child reached, and every effort made pushes us closer to a world where polio is a distant memory. Despite the challenges, the resolve remains strong because the cost of inaction is too great. PolioPlus embodies the spirit of resilience and the belief that we can overcome even the most daunting challenges together, ensuring no child is left vulnerable to polio's paralysing grip.
