Can't be arsed to follow this up, lacking links in the article. Does anyone know if there is a clue as to how the virus got into the country? It only circulates in very few places, I thought, and none in the Americas.

The previously last known places for polio were Afganistan, Pakistan, and Syria. These are places where Iran has a military presence. There is military cooperation between Venezuela and Iran.

AFAIK, there is no military presence of Iran in Pakistan and Afganistan. Could you share some neutral sources to back-up your claim?
