Popis: Few countries have tested the sensitivity of their polio surveillance systems, undertaken a comprehensive risk assessment or questioned whether existing polio surveillance strategies are the optimal surveillance at this stage of the global eradication initiative. To address this challenge, a risk assessment and review of Australia's polio surveillance systems were undertaken to assess the potential risk of introduction of polio by an infected person, product or specimen.
