... Conclusion: The journey is not finished yet and the national and regional efforts must continue. We must now maintain the elimination of measles and rubella transmission in the Americas and appeal for global eradication of measles. To the Director of PAHO and the Director General: this is your legacy. To the Ministers of Health assembled here today: your colleagues, your children, your grandchildren and generations to come will be able to see you in that photograph on this day when we have declared the Americas free of endemic measles transmission. Please madam chair, as president of the Directing Council, I ask your permission to invite the Director of the Pan American Health Organization, Dr. Carissa Etienne, to receive the formal declaration of the Americas as free of measles, on behalf of all Ministers of Health of the Americas, as well as the Director of the World Health Organization, Dr. Margaret Chan and you, as the President of this Directing Council.
