Some, such as norovirus and rotavirus, cause diarrheal disease, whereas others, such as poliovirus, Coxsackie virus, echovirus, and enterovirus (EV) 68, 70, and 71 cause disease primarily outside the enteric tract. Polio, Coxsackie, and echoviruses are well-known causes of central nervous system disease, such as meningitis and encephalitis. Coxsackie virus also causes hand, foot, and mouth disease and myocarditis. EV D68 is suspected of causing acute flaccid myelitis.
