What causes non-polio enterovirus infections?
There are more than 100 different types of non-polio enteroviruses that cause illness. These viruses are related to some common cold viruses and usually cause hand, foot and mouth disease and conjunctivitis (pink eye).
Sometimes, these types of enteroviruses can also cause diarrhea and breathing problems. Viruses spread from person to person through contact with infected people:
• When you are changing a baby’s diaper.
• Eating food or drinking water that is contaminated with infected feces.
• Having someone cough or sneeze on you.
• Touching a surface with a virus on it, such as a doorknob.
• If you touch your eyes or nose after being exposed to a virus.
Acting early on gross motor delays
From birth to 5 years, your child should reach typical age milestones in how they play, learn, speak, act, and move. If your child is:
– Not progressing like others their age.
– Moves or does not move their body like other children their age.
– Could do something physical and can no longer do it.
Early intervention is key! Take videos and start a conversation with your paediatrician.
