The Poliomyelitis vaccine, commonly known as the polio vaccine, is a critical tool in preventing poliomyelitis, a highly contagious viral disease caused by the poliovirus. The vaccine primarily comes in two forms: the inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) and the oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV). IPV is an injectable vaccine that contains killed poliovirus strains, providing immunity without causing the disease. OPV, administered orally, contains weakened but live poliovirus strains, promoting both individual and community immunity. The Global Polio Eradication Initiative, launched by the World Health Organization (WHO), aims to eradicate polio globally through mass vaccination campaigns. Significant progress has been made, reducing polio cases dramatically. While IPV is widely used in many developed countries, OPV is crucial for immunization campaigns in endemic regions due to its ease of administration. Eradicating polio remains a global health priority, and ongoing research focuses on refining vaccination strategies and addressing challenges in reaching vulnerable populations.
