What is keeping Nigeria from eradicating polio?
• Failure to reach enough children during polio immunization campaigns. • Missing the same children during polio immunization campaigns • Insufficient public trust in polio immunization. This public mistrust is due to discrimination, poverty and other major health priorities going unaddressed. • Lack of commitment from political leaders, traditional leaders, policy makers and the health sector. • Routine immunization and primary health care systems are weak.
