Investigation and response to a type 3 vaccine-derived poliovirus detected in an infant with hand, foot, and mouth disease — Guangdong, China, 2023
Based on Foshan's high polio vaccine coverage rate, sensitive AFP case reporting system, and findings from the investigation, risk of transmission of VDPVs in the area was determined to be extremely low. No vaccination response was conducted. After one year of environmental and AFP surveillance, no further VDPV3s were detected, indicating cessation of transmission.
