NAIROBI kobe 9 em game royal pas cher , Oct. 22 (Xinhua) -- The UN agencies on Thursday declared the 2013-2014 polio outbreak in Somalia, which affected nearly 200 people, most of them children, over.
The announcement came 14 months after the last polio case was identified, according to a joint statement by the UN children's fund (UNICEF), World Health Organization and the partners of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI).
An assessment team conducted a review in Somalia in October kobe 9 em pas cher , and decided the polio outbreak was over.
Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia, Peter de Clercq, said the achievement was a great credit to the Somalis and volunteers who "put their lives at risk to save lives of others in need".
He praised the Somali government for their actions fighting the disease.
"The Somali authorities have placed polio outbreak response as one of their national priorities and they exerted tremendous effort to ensure children are vaccinated," he said.
Polio was detected in Somalia in May 2013, for the first time in six years, after parents of a two-year-old girl in Mogadishu found she was unable to walk.

CANBERRA kobe 10 usa pas cher , Sept. 8 (Xinhua) -- Australia's Prime Minister Tony Abbott on Tuesday moved a motion to force a vote on approving the historic China-Australia Free Trade Agreement (ChAFTA).
In an effort to speed up the process and force Labor to accept the deal negotiated between Australia and China, Abbott called on Opposition Leader Bill Shorten to rubber stamp the agreement.
Abbott said it would be "unconscionable" for Shorten to block the FTA, telling parliament that unless it was accepted in its " negotiated form," China would "walk away."
"It is a done deal. It cannot be renegotiated. It is a deal we take or leave," Abbott said.
Labor has voiced reservations over the deal, citing a raw deal for Australian workers -- an opinion shared by the workers' unions -- as reasons for its opposition to the ChAFTA in its current form.
Shorten has asked to amend the agreement kobe 10 think pink pas cher , stating that "labour market testing" had to be compulsory for projects worth in excess of 110 million U.S. dollars.
This would ensure Australian citizens and permanent residents had a priority to apply for advertised jobs before those coming into Australia on a working 457 visa.
But Abbott has said there is nothing to hide in the deal, telling parliament that conditions, pay and safety standards would all be the same with or without the ChAFTA.
"Let me repeat that there is absolutely nothing possible under this agreement with China that is not already possible... that is not already possible including under free trade agreements negotiated by members opposite when they were in government," Abbott told parliament.
"There is no possibility of placing foreigners in Australian jobs without labour market testing," Abbott said.
Shorten moved to amend the agreement, asking that ChAFTA can " maximize job opportunities" for Australian workers kobe 10 silk road pas cher , "protect overseas workers from exploitation and maintain Australian wages and conditions" as well as uphold Australian safety standards.
However, Abbott was stubborn to the idea of tweaking the terms, despite an offer from Shorten to sit down and sort out the differences.
Instead, the prime minister said the deal was one that was extremely beneficial to Australia, and acknowledged that the FTA was the only one that China had signed with a G20 nation.
He said it would give Australia "unparalleled access" to what will soon become the "biggest" market in the world.
