The document summarizes global progress toward polio eradication from 1985 to 2012. It shows that the number of polio cases has declined dramatically from hundreds of thousands annually to just a few hundred in recent years. India has gone more than 15 months without any cases, proving that polio can be eradicated. However, challenges remain as the virus persists in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria. Continued funding is critical to reach every last child and achieve a polio-free world.
