QUESTION: Given the UN's push to empower the WHO.
Has anyone ever asked the WHO to explain why it declared Polio globally eradicated in 2015?

#5 Has anyone ever asked the WHO to explain why it declared Polio globally eradicated in 2015?

The word "eradicated" is being misused here, but essentially they have. At least in civilized countries where the vaccination teams don't get murdered. Eradicated, in the public health sense, means there are no naturally occurring cases anywhere. So far, smallpox is the only disease to have been eradicated. Yay, humans! And 3 cheers for Western medicine.

From the WHO website:
Wild poliovirus cases have decreased by over 99% since 1988, from an estimated 350,000 cases in more than 125 endemic countries to 6 reported cases in 2021. Of the 3 strains of wild poliovirus (type 1, type 2 and type 3), wild poliovirus type 2 was eradicated in 1999 and wild poliovirus type 3 was eradicated in 2020. As at 2022, endemic wild poliovirus type 1 remains in two countries: Pakistan and Afghanistan.

"Who done it?"
"The WHO."
"Yeah, that's what I'm asking. Who?"
"That's what I said. WHO"
"What?"
"No, WHO."
"ARGGHH!"
(sounds of violent scuffling)
