Mechanism of Poliovirus Eradication

摘要: Systematic international efforts to eradicate polio from the developing world began in Americas 1985, when Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) declared a target date of 1990 for eradication throughout Americas. Surveillance wild polioviruses has two arms: (i) acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) case investigations and (ii) virologic studies obtained clinical specimens. AFP surveillance by itself is neither highly specific nor sensitive detecting individual poliovirus infections. Poliovirus achieved elimination lineages (equivalent chains transmission), different genotypes (groups related sharing >85% nucleotide sequence identity), probably type 2. Polio cases associated with these importations have revealed pockets unimmunized children new host areas, prompting local immunization responses. However, far most effective response eliminate source reservoirs. Various supplementary approaches are implemented monitor ongoing laboratory performance. A serious challenge integrity data occurrence contamination cultures. Recently, outbreaks circulating vaccine-derived (cVDPV) been recognized three parts world. The iVDPVs cVDPVs appears be rare. Moreover, chronic excretors developed countries spontaneously stop shedding or die complications their immunodeficiency. As an increasing number switched inactivated vaccine (IPV), chances iVDPV infections decreased.
