== Factors that promote the creation of a non-cytolytic infection == The question arises: why do these persistent non-cytolytic infections not always occur after acute coxsackievirus B infection? What circumstances lead to acute lytic enterovirus transforming into a chronic non-cytolytic infection within the host? Prof [[Nora Chapman]] suggests that it probably requires a high level of acute infection to seed quiescent cells with enterovirus, such that a non-cytolytic infection has a chance to emerge.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ro7UlhSD-w&t=13m53s | title = How Does a Lytic Enterovirus Persist and Cause Chronic Disease? Enterovirus Session, International Symposium on Viruses in CFS & Post-viral Fatigue, Maryland, US, June 2008. Timecode: 13:53. | last=Chapman | first = Nora | date = 2008 | website = YouTube | archive-url=|archive-date=|url-status=|access-date=}}</ref> Interestingly, Dr Chia [[Corticosteroids given during acute viral infection may trigger myalgic encephalomyelitis|found]]ย that when corticosteroids are inadvertently given to patients during the acute stage of an enterovirus infection, this is a recipe for triggering enterovirus-associated ME/CFS. Corticosteroids suppress the antiviral immune response, and may thus cause a higher level of acute infection.
