The World Health Organization aims to eradicate wild poliovirus worldwide by the
end of 2018. Cameroon and Nigeria, neighboring countries, have been affected by
the terrorist and militant activities of the Islamist sect Boko Haram. Impacted
regions are mainly the far North of Cameroon and Northern Nigeria. Targets of
Boko Haram aggression in these zones include violence against polio workers,
disruption of polio immunization campaigns, with consequent reduced access to
health care and immunization. In addition to this significant problem, Northern
Nigeria has historically seen rejection of polio virus vaccine initiatives. It
remains to know how health systems can continue operations against polio in areas
where Boko Haram operates. If appropriate measures are not urgently taken, it
will be not possible to meet the 2018 goal of polio virus eradication. The
response should include specialized immunization activities in conflict zones,
will engagement of leaders. Countries should also explore immunization activities
by soldiers and military personnel.
