Last week, WHO announced that Africa was free of WILD polio cases..

And according to Associated Press:

In April, WHO and its partners reluctantly recommended a temporary halt to mass polio immunization campaigns, recognizing the move could lead to a resurgence of the disease. In May, they reported that 46 campaigns to vaccinate children against polio had been suspended in 38 countries, mostly in Africa, because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Could be Technically Correct. Now there is "artificial polio".

Note: The same happened in India, and this was/is a big scandal.
