In public health terminology, “elimination” and “eradication” have specific technical meanings defined by the World Health Organization (WHO): Elimination means the interruption of transmission of a disease within a defined geographic area, for example, a country or continent, but continued vigilance and vaccination are still required because the disease can be reintroduced from elsewhere. Eradication, on the other hand, means the permanent global reduction to zero of the disease-causing agent, it no longer exists in the world outside laboratories. Smallpox is the only human disease to have been eradicated.
