Description
This 150 millime stamp celebrates the global eradication of smallpox, a historic victory for science and international cooperation coordinated by the WHO. The image of a hook lifting the burden of disease off the globe symbolizes the liberation of humanity from an age-old scourge, making this feat the first case of total disappearance of a human disease thanks to a global vaccination campaign. This broadcast highlights Tunisia's commitment to major global public health issues, marking a stage where solidarity between nations has made it possible to transform medical hope into a concrete and saving reality for future generations.
