Global Rinderpest Eradication Programme (GREP)
24 November 2010, Isinya - A Maasai woman walking to her cow-dung plastered manyatta in a village approximately 50 kilometres southwest of capital Nairobi. Maasai depend almost entirely on their cattle for their livelihoods and are probably among the greatest benefactors of an ambitious global effort that has brought Rinderpest, a deadly cattle plague, to the brink of extinction, paving the way for official eradication of the disease.
It would be the first time in history that humankind has succeeded in wiping out an animal disease in the wild, and only the second time, after smallpox in 1980, that a disease has been eliminated thanks to human efforts.
