An impressive milestone has been reached in the battle against Polio. Rotarians worldwide have raised more than 1-billion dollars to try and eradicate the disease that's still prevalent in a handful of countries. Local Rotarian, Peter Stam says many people are surprised to find out local efforts are still being made on this front "some people are totally surprised that polio is still around in the world. They have no idea because it's really not that relevant in Canada that we are still trying to raise money for polio". Stam says in a today's world, Polio is only a plane ride away from resurfacing in Canada, thus the need to eradicate the disease for good. Money raised through Rotary goes towards the purchase of vaccines that cost 65-cents per dose.
