Summary Introduction

Poliovirus causes Poliomyletis disease charecterized by bone and muscle deformities and make the affected person unable to move. Poliovirus have RNA based genome with single stranded  positive sense RNA with 7.5 kb long. Poliovirus replicate inside the host cell with the help of RNA dependant RNA polymerase enzyme. Coronovirus consists of RNA as their genome. It causes common cold and flu infection in humans.
