I’m bear-y honored to receive this adorable bear carrying such an urgent message: #EndPolio. As countries convene for the polio pledging moment, it’s vital they heed this bear’s message and commit to consigning polio to history.

The world made a promise to #EndPolio for good. No one should live in fear of this preventable disease. The Gates Foundation is proud to commit $1.2B toward helping health workers stop all forms of this virus and protect children forever. gatesfoundation.org/ideas/media-ce…

Did you know that the inventor of the teddy bear was a polio survivor? As countries and donors come together to reaffirm their support for the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, this bear is a reminder of everything we have to gain if we step up our commitment to #EndPolio.

Last month, polio was detected in London sewers. Today, a case of polio has been confirmed in New York. While great progress has been made globally, we must continue to collaborate to eradicate this disease. nyti.ms/3PHJIJm

Yesterday we attended the National Task Force Meeting chaired by PM of Pakistan, followed by the launch of the nationwide #polio campaign that will reach over 40 million children. It is synchronized with the campaign in Afghanistan that aims to reach nearly 10 million children

📢Yesterday, the Global Polio Eradication Initiative launched its investment case to #EndPolio by 2026. We have the tools to wipe #polio off the earth for good. As new cases emerge in polio-free countries there is no time to lose for decisive global action.

Last week’s announcement of two national #polio campaigns in Afghanistan, the first in more than 3.5 years, is a massive boost for eradication efforts. It’s not just about the access – the timing is also critical. #WPD2021
