Description:Updated August 3, 2022
July 21, 2022: CDC is aware of a case of polio in an unvaccinated individual from Rockland County, New York, and is consulting with the New York State Department of Health on their investigation. Public health experts are working to understand how and where the individual was infected and provide protective measures, such as vaccination services to the community to prevent the spread of polio to under- and unvaccinated individuals. There is no cure for polio, but it is preventable through safe and effective vaccination.
Poliovirus infections still occur in some countries. Get your child vaccinated on schedule to protect them from polio.
