Challenges Facing Healthcare Administration , Public Health, Nurses And Microbiology Team Towards Prevention Of Transmission Of Wild Poliovirus

Abstract

The Global Commission for the Certification of the Eradication of Poliomyelitis will declare the world free of wild poliovirus transmission when no wild virus has been detected for a minimum of 3 consecutive years, and all laboratories that possess wild poliovirus materials have implemented effective containment measures. These achievements can be attained through the collaborative efforts of healthcare administration, public health, nursing, and microbiology teams in addressing the challenges associated with transmission. The primary obstacles to achieving polio eradication are the lack of robust political backing at the national level, insufficient financial support that hampers the implementation of WHO recommendations, potential issues with the availability of polio vaccine due to inadequate support, and the unsatisfactory rate of progress in polio surveillance.
