Abstract

Enteroviruses (EVs) belong to the Picornaviridae family and consist of coxsackieviruses (CVs), rhinoviruses, polioviruses, and echoviruses. Enteroviruses constitute one of the most common causes of infections in humans worldwide, affecting all age groups and causing a diverse range of diseases, including the common cold, polio, and aseptic meningitis. Enteroviral infections are often self-limiting, though EVs can lead to significant morbidity and economic burden [1].
