6 Pakistan and Afghanistan: Corridors of transmission common reservoirs spanning borders between Afghanistan and Pakistan involving: 1) selected geographic areas, and 2) demographic groups Three main shared transmission corridors/endemic zones: a) Southern/Western (Kandahar & Helmand Quetta) b) Southeast Afghanistan/South KP (Paktika South Waziristan) c) Eastern/Northern (Nangahar & Jalalabad Peshawar Valley) 4 risk scenarios for future WPV transmission due to movement of people, and GPEI action: Movement within reservoir areas Areas with high population movement identified and focused Emphasis on guest children (vaccinators, SMs, Supervisors and monitors) Straddling populations at border areas Mapping of areas and relations on other side of border Inclusion in high risk area for increased focus Nomads Routes, seasonality identified Nomad specific campaigns, Nomad specific PTTs, Inclusion in SNID/NID Returnees Vaccination at border, UNHCR/IOM centers IPV (under 5) and OPV (under 10) Identification of settlement and inclusion in microplan

26 Post-Certification Strategy Goals Purpose: Define how a polio-free world will be sustained Goal 1: Contain Polio Sources Ensure potential sources of poliovirus are properly controlled or removed Goal 2: Protect Populations Immunize populations against unanticipated polio events Goal 3: Detect and Respond Detect any poliovirus introduction and rapidly respond to prevent transmission Goal 4: Manage Effectively and Monitor Ensure ongoing polio functions are embedded in existing or develop new approaches to sustain the goals of polio post-certification 26

27 Program Risks Reasons for Optimism Routine Immunization SIA Quality Immunity gaps AFP Surveillance missed transmission Environmental Surveillance Mobile and Cross-border populations Security compromised / access Community Trust in Vaccines Containment IPV supply OPV supply Complacency Funding Poor Transition Planning Lowest Number of Cases Declining genetic diversity Expand Environmental Surveillance Risks are known w/ solutions possible Windows of Opportunity in Insecure Areas Evidence Based Communications Technology: GIS, Mobile phones/remote monitoring, baby registries Cost Savings Identified Transition Planning Improving Stronger oversight Country-led efforts and ownership Accountability frameworks

28 Global Polio Eradication is the largest effort outside of armed conflict in the world. With 20 million volunteers, health workers, lab techs, vaccinators, mobilizers dedicated to the common goal of preventing childhood paralysis. 13 Million Cases of Paralysis Prevented
