They belong to the Picornaviridae family and are mainly transmitted via smear infection, contaminated food or water and droplet infection. Enteroviruses are highly resistant to environmental influences and can survive outside the body for a long time, which favours their rapid spread.
The best-known diseases caused by enteroviruses include hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD), summer flu, viral meningitis, myocarditis, polio (polio) and rare neurological complications. Symptoms vary depending on the type of virus and can include fever, skin rashes, diarrhoea, sore throat, headache, muscle pain or neurological deficits. Enteroviruses can cause serious infections, particularly in immunocompromised people.

In order to reduce the risk of infection, good hygiene, regular hand washing and strengthening the immune system through a healthy diet, sleep and stress reduction are essential.
