Session I: Case Studies of Major Eradication or Elimination Efforts
This session will address the standards and strategies, technical feasibil-
ity, political will, and financial commitment for several diseases targeted for
eradication or elimination. Discussions will identify the successes and fail-
ures of these efforts, and the challenges for post-eradication/elimination
strategies.

Session II: Biologic Challenges to Post-Eradication
This session will address the science-based underpinnings of how and
when to stop immunization, and the protective actions that remain to be
established. We will examine the current state-of-the-science of several dis-
eases poised for elimination/eradication and identify gaps in our knowI-
edge, primarily focusing on the risk of pathogen transmission to and main-
tenance in susceptible individuals. Through the issues discussed we will
identify the effect they have on the duration of disease elimination/eradica-
tion programs, as well as the likelihood for their success.

Challenges to Post-Eradication Operational and Institutional Remediation
The need for resources will likely increase for countries with multiple
eradication campaigns, particularly as disease prevalence decreases and
surveillance intensifies. This session will address the thoroughness with
which public health systems and laboratories are able to define their limita-
tions and manage their resources.

have been used for decades. This session will review the present vaccine and
drug armamentaria with a view toward improving their safety, efficacy and
potential value against diseases targeted for eradication.

Session V: The Response to Post-Eradication Outbreaks
Protecting populations that are no longer immune presents formidable
challenges to public health agencies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, secu-
rity analysts, and the public. Resolution of these issues in advance affects
when and how prevention activities can be stopped in conjunction with
disease eradication.

Session VI:
Panel Session: Identifying the Tllreats and Mitigating the Impact
The challenges and opportunities facing disease eradication and how
they will affect public policy will be identified through an open discussion
among invited panelists, Forum members, speakers, and the workshop au-
dience. Issues to address will include the identification of possible require-
ments that need to be met prior to eradication, such as collections of diverse
isolates and strains, an organism's complete genomic sequence, full under-
standing of the life history of the organism and its mechanisms of patho-
