Polio resurgence in India: A systematic review PDF Print

At the request of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, PHFI organised a workshop (February 2007) aimed at identifying research priorities to address the resurgence of Polio in UP and Bihar.

A systematic review of available data (published and grey) between 2000 and 2007 was undertaken to synthesise the efforts made to control Polio in India as a follow up to the workshop.

Polio elimination efforts were reviewed from a range of perspectives including programme operational factors, socio-cultural factors, vaccine related issues and environmental factors.
