END POLIO NOW!
Guest speaker for June 4th is Ross Roliard Polio Plus Chair with the Rotary Club of Fairview.
The presentation covers the polio virus, its history, its current status and the efforts being made by so many to fully eradicate polio worldwide. I have some very optimistic news about new developments in this fight that will make a significant difference. Polio is only endemic in two countries (Afghanistan & Pakistan). We really are close!
Did you know that we (Rotary, Gates Foundation, WHO, CDC and UNICEF) are still immunizing over 400 million children each year to keep this scourge at bay? Learn more about that plus advancements in vaccines and vaccine delivery systems by scheduling a presentation at your club as soon as possible!
