Yearly incidence of vaccine-derived polivirus type 2, Democratic Republic of Congo, 2004–2011. The total number of cases associated with vaccine-derived polivirus type 2 is graphed for each year according to date of onset of paralysis. Viruses that are not assigned to a lineage are categorized as unclassified. VDVPs, vaccine-derived PVs.
