The workforce established by the polio eradication programme have provided valuable support to COVID-19 vaccination efforts. Their work demonstrates that the skills, tools and expertise that have been built to eradicate polio can be repurposed effectively to build back stronger and more resilient public health systems. Lessons-learned from their role in COVID-19 vaccination efforts and essential immunization proves the case for a successful polio transition and the critical need to sustain this network to continue contributing to broader public health and immunization goals.
