Polio News - Milestone switch made from tri- to bivalent OPV 

All 155 countries and territories that currently use oral polio vaccine (OPV) were expected to switch from trivalent to bivalent OPV in their routine immunization programs between 17 April and 1 May. The switch will protect children from the risk, though extremely rare, of contracting vaccine derived poliovirus, and is a critical step toward ending the disease. OPV will be removed once all wild polioviruses are eradicated. The switch has been made possible by the dedication of health workers, governments, partners and donors, and their continued support will be essential to achieving a polio-free world.
