she shared a dirty needle when injecting drugs with an acquaintance.
she didnt thoroughly wash her hands after using the restroom.
she consumed food that wasnt cooked to a safe temperature.
she inhaled droplets from a nearby strangers cough.
Poliovirus is mainly spread through the fecal - oral route. Not washing hands thoroughly after using the restroom can lead to ingestion of the virus if hands come in contact with contaminated feces. Sharing dirty needles is more associated with blood - borne viruses like HIV and hepatitis. Consuming under - cooked food is more related to food - borne bacteria or parasites rather than poliovirus. Inhalation of droplets from a cough is not the main mode of poliovirus transmission.
