Although polio can cause paralysis and death, the vast majority of people who are infected with the poliovirus don't become sick and are never aware they've been infected with polio.

Polio and Polio Vaccination - PatientInfo

Poliomyelitis (polio) is caused by infection with the poliovirus, an enterovirus. The virus may invade lymphatic tissue and spread into the bloodstream. It can be neurotropic, destroying motor neurons, particularly in the anterior horn of the spinal cord and brain stem. This causes flaccid paralysis which may be spinal or bulbar.

Polio is an infectious disease caused by a virus. The virus lives in an infected person's throat and intestines. It is most often spread by contact with the stool of an infected person. You can also get it from droplets if an infected person sneezes or coughs. It can contaminate food and water if people do not wash their hands.
