In 1988 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared its commitment to the goal of global eradication of poliomyelitis by the year 2000, generating new enthusiasm in pursuing this objective worldwide. The nations involved are supported by a coalition of partners, including Rotary International, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of Atlanta, Ga., UNICEF, and the WHO itself.
