year for POLIO PLUS. Traditionally our district has maintained a 100% club

than efficiently transmitting them to our Rotary Foundation specific to

my hope is that these numbers will substantially increase prior to June 30,
2019. </font></b></div>

primary concern remains Pakistan. Of the 22 cases globally since 1.1.19, 15 are
in Pakistan & 7 cases in Afghanistan. Last year Pakistan had only 12
documented cases of paralytic polio in 2018 so the increase is very concerning.
Steps are being taken by Rotary and our multi-national partners to reverse this
dangerous trend. I will update this in my next email In our
progress.</font></b></div>

<li><b><font size="4">In closing, I want to leave you with this fact. Since
1988, you have been responsible for saving millions upon millions of
children’s lives. Protecting many times that number from post polio syndrome,
a debilitating chronic after effect of the polio virus attacking & killing
motor neurons which children in 3rd world countries will never recover from.
They will never have the opportunity of a normal childhood, or of a
productive life free of constant pain. Most will be outcasts with a shortened
lifespan. Fortunately those of us who experienced the ravages of polio here in
the United States were able with proper medical treatment to overcome those
circumstances & lead a productive life.</font></b></li></ul></div>
