Rotavirus Infections
Rotavirus infections are highly contagious viruses that primarily cause severe diarrhoea and vomiting in infants and young children. These infections often lead to dehydration and hospitalisation. Rotavirus infections are preventable through vaccination, which is widely recommended for infants. Improved hygiene also helps reduce the transmission of rotavirus infections.
