414013 Year of last recorded case of wild polio   This excludes polio cases imported from other countries. Switzerland's data point was missing in the original dataset and was obtained from the WHO (2017) time series dataset "Reported Cases of Selected Vaccine Preventable Diseases (VPDs)" which can be found under point "3.1 Reported incidence time series" here: http://www.who.int/immunization/monitoring_surveillance/data/en/ Somalia was listed twice in the GPEI table, so again the WHO (2017) dataset cited above was consulted to make out which year was in fact the correct information. Timor's datapoint originally read "pre 1985" and was replaced with 1985 for this visualization. Polio remains endemic in two countries as of 2021: Afghanistan and Pakistan. Malawi recorded a case in 2021, but the case was genetically linked to poliovirus samples seen in Pakistan and Malawi has not yet seen evidence of further circulation. Therefore it is labeled polio affected in this dataset.
