Polio Eradication Update
What is that Polio Eradication Picture? -- Four new Wild Polio cases reported this week!!           
Today's Polio picture is of our Past RI President James Bomar.  October 29, 2019 marked the 40th Anniversary of President Bomar giving the first Oral Polio Drops, in the first large scale 3H (Health, Hunger, and Humanity) project in the Philippines - the project that would grow into Rotary's Global Polio Eradication effort, to be named PolioPlus, in the years to follow.  
October 24 - World Polio Day: One Day. One Focus: ENDING POLIO NOW!
 
Can You Name Five Ways Our Work Against Polio Fights Other Diseases?  The third is - Surveillance - The Polio surveillance system helps detect new cases of Polio and determines where and how these cases originated.  In Borno State of Nigeria, the surveillance system is now being used to find people with symptoms of Yellow Fever.  Surveillance was one of the many tactics used during a 2018 Yellow Fever outbreak that prompted vaccinations of more than eight million people.     
 
MC Youth Services Kids for Roller Skating Outing

On 7/27/19 Rotary hosted the MC Youth Services Kids for Roller Skating Outing. We shared in good old fashion fun and Judy and Nikki even showed up with their own skates!  All of the kids laced up their skates and rolled out on the floor singing and skating to the music.  For several of the them it was the first time they had been rollerskating in their lives.  We indulged in pizza and soda and allowed them to just be kids.  The afternoon wrapped up with a race of all the kids and a couple Rotarians around the rink.  It was an amazing day.  About a week after the outing we received handwritten thank you cards from each of the kids and the counselors.  It heartwarming knowing that we are making a difference in their worlds.  

Rotary House Update
Both  of our units are currently occupied.  We have three patients on the waiting list.  We have served patients from all hospitals in the area including MD Anderson.
