Poliomyelitis was one of the first diseases to be recorded an Egyptian tomb carving of the Nineteenth Dynasty shows the dead man to have had a foot-drop deformity typical of paralytic poliomyelitis Fig. . A world polio eradication campaign should result in this virus becoming extinct by 2006. The extraordinarily wide range of diseases caused by different members of the family is summarized in Table . The syndromes include asymptomatic infection which fortunately is by far the most common disease of the CNS febrile illness with rash conjunctivitis herpangina infections involving the muscles and heart and hepatitis. Probably no other family of viruses causes such a diversity of illnesses. 1 Properties of the viruses Classification The family Picornaviridae contains six genera Table . Its name derives from the small size of these viruses pico small and their RNA genome. Picornaviruses are found in several mammalian species but we shall describe only those that infect humans. They are acid-resistant which enables them to survive passage through the stomach. They replicate in the small intestine can readily be isolated from faeces and are spread by the faecal-oral route. Gastroenteritis is however not a major feature of picornavirus infections. Poliovirus was the first of the genus indeed of the whole family to be isolated. This accomplishment by Enders Weller
