The last 0.01% is a fragile moment in the polio eradication effort. Chris Wolff, the World Health Organization’s new director of polio eradication, says we either push to 100% or risk backsliding. It’s a mission that affects the whole world, not just the regions where polio still exists, and Wolff is optimistic that we can achieve eradication for the good of humanity. Chicago journalist Jerome McDonnell sits down with Wolff to discuss his journey to the work of polio eradication and his new role.
