In 1995, Egypt continued to experience endemic wild poliovirus transmission despite achieving high routine immunization coverage with at least three doses of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV3) and implementing National Immunization Days (NIDs) annually for several years.

PIP: In 1995, Egypt was experiencing endemic wild poliovirus transmission despite achieving high routine immunization coverage with at least 3 doses of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV3) and implementing National Immunization Days (NIDs) annually for several years. The parents of 4188 children aged 0-47 months in 3216 households throughout Egypt were surveyed after the second round of the 1995 NID in an attempt to gain some insight into the extent of NID OPV coverage nationwide, why children were not immunized during the NIDs, and the effectiveness of the NID media campaign. Countrywide, an estimated 74% of children have received both NID doses, 17% 1 NID dose, and 9% neither NID dose. Previously unimmunized (47%) or partially immunized (64%) children were less likely to receive 2 NID doses of OPV than were fully immunized children (76%). Other risk factors nationwide for failing to receive NID OPV included living farther than 10 minutes by foot from the nearest NID site, not being informed about the NID at least 1 day in advance, and living in a household which does not watch television. Based upon these findings, subsequent NIDs in Egypt were changed to improve coverage, which has resulted in a marked decrease in the incidence of paralytic poliomyelitis in the country.
