Group A rotavirus gastroenteritis: post-vaccine era, genotypes and zoonotic transmission

Group A rotavirus gastroenteritis: post-vaccine era, genotypes and zoonotic transmission

ABSTRACT This article provides a review of immunity, diagnosis, and clinical aspects of rotavirus disease. It also informs about the changes in epidemiology of diarrheal disease and genetic diversity of circulating group A rotavirus strains following the introduction of vaccines. Group A rotavirus i...
