Text Extraction

Vaccination programs have been successful in Cuba, whatever metrics are used to evaluate them: the population is protected against 13 diseases, well beyond WHO goals; illnesses such as polio, diphtheria, whooping cough and others have been eradicated; and even hepatitis B is slated to disappear. How can these results be explained?
