The African Region commemorates from 23 to 28 April 2012 the second African Vaccination Week. This year's AVW is "An Unimmunized Child is One Too Many. Give Polio the Final Push". The AVW is a unique opportunity to accelerate progress towards the eradication of polio. In 2011, the African Region recorded only 350 polio cases.
