“…These primary awareness programs, together with the vaccination campaign, initiated in the fifties, paved the way for the GPEI created in 1988, which aimed to eradicate the virus. Over the subsequent years, following the initial discovery of poliovirus, over 100 enterovirus serotypes have now been discovered with nearly 70 species infecting humans ( Craighead, 2000 ). Non-polio EV can cause a variety of clinical syndromes, ranging from hand-foot and mouth disease to aseptic meningitis.…”

“…EVs form one genus of the Picornaviridae , a family of small, non-enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses that are globally widespread [ 2 ]. EVs are composed by nearly 100 serotypes of coxsackievirus, echovirus, and poliovirus, and are transmitted by (1) fecal-oral, (2) respiratory droplet, and (3) water, food, and fomites [ 3 ]. EVs in the environment are mainly found in water sources, including sewage systems, causing diseases that can present with neurological complications [ 4 ].…”

“…Enteroviruses do not replicate in the intestinal surface epithelium cells, but rather do so in the Payer patches of submucosa and in the regional mesenteric lymph nodes. Furthermore, polioviruses can start to replicate in tonsils when crossing the nasopharyngeal squamous epithelium; then the poliovirus (especially in association with tonsillectomy) may quickly enter the nerve endings and can reach the brain stem [4]. Nevertheless, viraemic spread is the traditionally accepted route, how poliovirus invades the CNS in order to involve the large motoneurons of the anterior horns in spinal cord causing their destruction [5].…”
