All about Polio in last 10 Months:
✔️ Meghalaya stated that WHO is investigating if a new strain of polio infected a two-year-old child in Tikrikilla , West Garo Hills
✔️ Union Health Ministry clarified that the case is of vaccine-derived infection , not wild polio
✔️ WHO had declared India polio-free in 2014 , after the last case of wild poliovirus in 2011
✔️ Oral polio vaccine (OPV) can mutate into vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) when the weakened virus in the vaccine replicates in the gut
✔️ WHO has reported detection of both wild poliovirus (WPV) and vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV) in Finland, Germany, Poland, Spain, and UK
✔️ The oral polio vaccine (OPV) , while effective for polio control, allows the spread of vaccine-derived polioviruses
✔️ Injectable polio vaccine (IPV) is non-transmissible , considered critical for global eradication of WPV and cVDPVs
✔️ Historically, polio transmission was believed to be via faecal-oral route , supported by virus shedding in the gut
✔️ Recent studies argue for respiratory transmission as dominant route, supported by virus shedding in the throat
