Today marks 23 years of the European Region's wild polio-free status — a powerful reminder that together we can #EndPolio.

Thank you to @EIB and the @EU_Commission for investing in a polio-free future for every child, everywhere.

Today, I visited the 🇦🇿 Azerbaijani Embassy in Belgium 🇧🇪, my home country, to sign the condolence book for the victims of the tragic plane crash in #Aktau 🇰🇿.

In my meeting with Ambassador Vagif Sadigov, I expressed my deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives & wished a swift recovery to the injured.

Poliovirus has been detected through routine surveillance of wastewater systems in 3 countries in the @WHO_Europe Region - Germany, Poland and Spain - since September this year.

While no cases have been detected to date, the presence of the virus underscores the importance of vaccination and surveillance - as well as the ongoing risk that any form of #poliovirus poses to all countries everywhere.

We commend our Member States 🇩🇪 🇵🇱 🇪🇸 for their strong vigilance, which enabled them to detect and quickly respond to this public health threat.

While investigation of these detections is ongoing, WHO/Europe will continue to work with all countries in our Region to strengthen poliovirus surveillance and ensure high immunization rates.

I am a born optimist.

Despite the challenges in tackling tuberculosis in the @WHO_Europe Region and globally, I’m convinced we CAN #EndTB for once and for all.

Here’s how. ⬇️
