UPDATE: Today is World Polio Day! 
 
"The detection of poliovirus, and even cases of polio, in places where it hasn’t been found for years has demonstrated once again that eradicating a human disease isn’t easy, especially in the final stages .In recent months, an unvaccinated man in the United States was paralyzed. In the UK, poliovirus was detected in sewage. In Malawi, a child contracted polio. And Mozambique announced its first polio outbreak in 30 years."
 
In honor of World Polio Day, read this article to learn what Rotary is doing to "make sure no person is paralyzed by polio ever again."
 
And after you read the article, go to www.endpolio.org to donate.
