Add to ORKGAlthough in 2015 poliovirus (PV) transmission has been reported at the lowest levels ever recorded, the spread of virus from the endemic countries can be continue; the high levels of immigration flows across the Mediterranean Sea jeopardize Italy for PV reintroduction. The \u201cWHO Strategic Plan of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative\u201d indicates the nationwide surveillance of Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP) as the gold standard for detecting cases of poliomyelitis. In addition, systematic Environmental Surveillance (ES), seeking the presence of Poliovirus and Non-Polio-Enterovirus (NPEV) in sewage, is recognized as a powerful tool to confirm PV circulation in absence of AFP cases, especially in polio-free countries. The annual aver...
