Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The World Health Organization has targeted the elimination of polio, dracunculiasis, and measles. Polio eradication efforts have been ongoing for several decades and significant progress has been made, with only a few countries still reporting endemic polio cases. Dracunculiasis, also known as guinea worm disease, has also seen a decline in cases and is close to being eradicated. Measles elimination efforts have been ramped up in recent years with a goal of reducing the number of global measles deaths by 95% by 2030. Plague is not currently targeted for elimination by the WHO.
