I greatly appreciate the comments given by the referees that helped us to improve the manuscript. In the revised version, I addressed issues raised by the reviewers. Accordingly, the title was changed to “Editorial”, and the references list was improved by updating some references of the text. Also couple of sentences plus related references were added to the introduction. These sentences have been highlighted.

These improvements have also assisted health authorities in implementing tailored elimination programs for some of these pathogens, customized for each country [11-14].
