Learn about the safety nets being put in place to make sure that the phased withdrawal of the oral polio vaccine will speed up our journey towards a polio-free world, such as the introduction of the inactivated polio vaccine into routine immunization programmes.
This is one of a series of six videos on what is being done to secure a polio-free world: from the vaccines that are being used to stop polio; to how the oral polio vaccine is being phased out from April 2016 to remove any risk of vaccine-derived polioviruses, starting with the switch from trivalent to bivalent oral polio vaccine in April 2016; and how securely containing polioviruses within laboratories and vaccine manufacturing sites will keep every last child protected, long into the future.
