CPO(c), Mathew Varghese MD, Sanjeev Sabharwal MD, MPH Global HELP Organization 1 Preface Many people have been misled to think that poliomyelitis Those many thousands who currently live with paralysis is essentially extinct. While the worldwide incidence of due to polio and AFP still need care. Add to this, those with polio has gone from an estimated 350,000 reported proven the polio-like AFM who also need treatments developed cases in 1988 to 74 cases in 2015 (1) the prevalence of for polio. But as long as the thinking among health workers Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP) in children was above becomes fixed in the belief that polio has been eliminated, 50,000 per year in India alone (2).

The repository of this beyond malaise and diarrhea, which are common symptoms information is now in the hands of an ever-dwindling in childhood and easily overlooked.
