Hi Lesley, hope you are doing well. Would you please pass the following from
Terje to Mr. Epstein? Thx, Jilla
The World Health Organization has declared the spread of polio is an
international public health emergency.
Outbreaks in Asia, Africa and Middle East are an "extraordinary event" needing
a co-ordinated "international response", the agency says.
It recommends citizens of affected countries travelling abroad carry a
vaccination certificate.
It says Pakistan, Cameroon, and Syria "pose the greatest risk of further wild
poliovirus exportations in 2014."
Polio mainly affects children under five years old.
The virus is transmitted through contaminated food and water, and multiplies in
the intestine. It can then invade the nervous system, causing paralysis in one in
every 200 infections. It is capable of causing death within hours.
