Best Answer

Polio affects both the skeletal and muscular system. When the polio virus enters the body it immediately attacks the nervous system, followed by the muscular system. The muscular system is what gives the skeletal system the ability to move. Thus, when the muscular system gets infected the skeletal system no longer has the power to move the body to where it wants to go. This is known as paralysis.
