Due to recently expressed concerns locally, from District 5420, and from RI over disease spread (Covid AND the awful strain of flu this year) we are temporarily reinstating the Zoom connection for our meetings. The on-going use of Zoom will depend on the use of it by our members but for now we are adding it.
NOTE: these are hybrind meetings. You may attend in person at The Bloomington Country Club OR you can attend via Zoom.

EIGHTY-THREE - The number of days since the last case of WPV1 occurred in Afghanistan.
ONE YEAR & 6 DAYS - The number of days since the last case of WPV1 occurred in Pakistan.
ZERO - The total number of cases of WPV1 that has occurred in 2022
year-to-date.
FIVE - The total number of cases of WPV1 that occurred in 2021.
ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY - The total number of cases of WPV1 that occurred in 2020.
Once again, there were also no new cases of wild polio Positive Environmental Samples (ES) reported. So the total count of wild ES for the 2022 remains at zero. The last ES reported was discovered in Pakistan on December 6, 2021.
OK, this week, we can officially say without any caveats that it has been ONE YEAR without a case of the wild poliovirus in Pakistan...so YES, WE CAN DO THE HAPPY DANCE ONCE AGAIN WITH GUSTO...READY...
