2010Global1,294 cases
India on verge of polio eradication
96% (21)
88 %(42)
60 % (144)
Polio travels without a passport!
2009 = 741 / 1, 604 cases
2010 = Just 42 / 1,294 cases
“It it can be done, it must be done”
2011 = Just 1 case in INDIA!!!!!
Success is due to the new revolutionary Bivalent oral polio vaccine (bOPV) And sustained effort of Rotary
One single positive case of polio paralysis is an EPIDEMIC
as it means it has affected 250 children already!
By participating in polio sNIDs
We do not become a man of success but rather become a man of value.
Since 1988, Rotary has contributed
$ 800 million (11% of global budget & 64% of private sector contribution)
Rotary’s public advocacy resulted in $ 5 billion for polio from private
World contribution 1988 – 2010 : Total $ 7.94 billion for polio
For 2011 - 2012
Funding gap is $ 720 million
for core running costs, all sNIDs and emergency outbreak response.
It costs around $1 billion per year to run vaccination programs worldwide.
External funding requirements
720 m $ for INDIA (230 – 240 m$ each year)
“It's very clear: This is a ‘make-or-break
time’ for polio eradication."The only reason why polio may now fail to get eradicated is
LACK OF FUNDS
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Donation Challenge to Rotary Foundation
$355 m received by Rotary in challenge
grants from the Bill
& Melinda Gates
Foundation.
$200 m Rotary needs to raise before 2012 to match this challenge
$555 m This TOTAL will directly support NIDs in India

$ 160 m for Rotary's $200 m Challenge

ROTARY INTERNATIONAL
Polio Eradication program is the
largest public health
program in history
of mankind.
2 billion childrenare immunized to date!
60 lakh children are walking free (not permanently paralyzed)
due to Rotary’s efforts since 1985!
Do you know what will happenif the world fails
to eradicate polio?
99% success is 100% failure.
> 1 crore of the world’s
children will be paralyzed
in the next 40 years
We are this close to ending polio
As long as polio threatens even one child anywhere in the world, children everywhere remain at risk. The stakes are that high.
ITS ALL ON YOUR PERCEPTION
You change your perceptions,You change your thoughts.
What you think, you become.
Life gives a choice to become a man of success
Rotary gives a chance to become a
man of value
“Polio Eradication is not only about raising money;it is about saving children.”
