- GREATEST HITS, DISEASE ELIMINATION
Since 2008, 25 items on elimination and pre-elimination have attracted more than 100 page views from you, my readers.
A word on eradication and elimination: eradication means reducing the global incidence of a disease to zero. Among human diseases, the unique case of eradication is smallpox. Polio and guinea worm are both targeted for eradication.
Elimination means either clearing a disease from a designated geographical area (wild poliovirus has been eliminated from the Americas, for example), or reduction of an ineradicable disease to below a given threshold (such as the elimination of maternal and neonatal tetanus from a given country, with neonatal tetanus reduced to below 1 per 1000 livebirths).
Good reading.
