Enteroviruses are primarily spread through close contact with an infected person, by touching surfaces or objects contaminated with the virus, or through exposure to contaminated food or water. They can also be transmitted through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Good hygiene practices, such as washing hands regularly, can help prevent the spread of enteroviruses.
