In the last 12 months, no case of Guinea worm disease has been found in Nigeria. It's a major step in former President Jimmy Carter's effort to eradicate the parasitic disease worldwide. The Carter Center has been leading the battle against Guinea worm -- in partnership with the US Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization. VOA's Kane Farabaugh recently spoke with the former President and Carter Center staff based in Africa about the ongoing effort to wipe out a disease, something done only once before.
