New York Times polio

eradication story highlights

Rotarys role

The New York Times has published a

major front-page story about thepolio eradication effort in Pakistan,

one of three remaining polio-

endemic countries. The article

highlights Rotarys leadership role,

focusing on the contributions of

Pakistani Rotarians, led by National

PolioPlus Committee Chair Aziz

Memon. Rotarians are portrayed as

dedicated and courageous front-line

volunteers, despite sometimes

facing personal risks. The story also

mentions International PolioPlus

Committee Chair Robert Scotts trip

to Pakistan in March.

While the story discusses recent

setbacks and challenges in

Pakistans efforts to eradicate polio,

the overall tone is cautiously

optimistic.

Another recent story in The Wall

Street Journal reported on the

extension of the partnership

between Rotary and the Bill &

Melinda Gates Foundation in

support of polio eradication.

These articles are the latest in a

series of major international storiesabout Rotary and polio eradication

in the past 18 months by BBC TV,

The Economist, Time magazine, and

other influential media outlets.

This top tier media coverage

enhances the work of the Global

Polio Eradication Initiative byraising the public awareness and

support that are crucial as Rotaryand its partners implement the

endgame strategic plan to achieveour goal of a polio-free world.
