Policy Milestone

Type classification sorts health milestones by the kind of achievement each one represents, such as an eradication, a discovery or a new treatment. Wikipedia notes that smallpox eradication made it "the only human disease to have been eradicated" until rinderpest followed in 2011. This dimension lets a visitor compare milestones that share the same kind of achievement.
