A new case of WPV1 was reported this week in Equatorial Guinea with onset of paralysis on 28 January from Centro Sur province, close to the border with Cameroon. This is the first polio case reported from the country since 1999. Genetic sequencing indicates that the isolated virus is linked to transmission in Cameroon.
