Central Importance of Community for Polio and Routine

Rina Dey has provided us with permission to further share her article for Huffington: "Our Best Shot At Immunization Success: Winning Over The Community". The core argument is: "The polio campaign was initiated by Global Polio Eradication Initiative in 1998.While the government of India and its many partners deserve credit for making India polio free, the community also played a major role in this success.Different levels of the government and its partners made a tremendous effort to understand the community, identify the hindrances, and address them by reaching out to the people with appropriate communication tools.". Please do reveiw and share your analysis and ideas in response to Rina's perspective.
