414000 AFP cases with adequate stool collection   To test cases of paralytic polio (acute flaccid paralysis in a child under the age of 15 or person of any age suspected to have polio) for the presence of poliovirus, it is recommended by the WHO that two stool samples are taken, between 24–48 hours apart, within 14 days of the onset of paralysis, and tested in a WHO-accredited laboratory. The proportion of AFP cases that meet this criteria is called the % adequate stool collection. This variable is updated annually, but cases from the most recent year often have data that is pending. This data was last updated on 30 May 2022.
