Frequently Asked Questions

Rotavirus disease is caused by the rotavirus (a double-stranded RNA virus) which is a highly contagious virus that primarily affects infants and young children. There are several strains or serotypes of rotavirus, with the most common ones being G1, G2, G3, G4, and G9.

Rotavirus disease can affect people of all ages, but it primarily affects infants and young children. The following individuals are at a higher risk of rotavirus disease:

  • Infants and young children: Rotavirus infection is most common in infants and young children, especially between the ages of 6 months and 2 years. This is because their immune systems are still developing, and they have not yet built up sufficient immunity against the virus.
  • Children in daycare settings: Rotavirus can spread easily in settings where young children are in close contact with each other, such as daycare centers. The virus can be transmitted through person-to-person contact, contaminated surfaces, and shared toys, increasing the risk of infection among children in these environments.
  • Individuals with weakened immune systems: People with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS or undergoing chemotherapy, are more susceptible to severe rotavirus infection. Their weakened immune response may result in more prolonged and severe symptoms.
  • Individuals living in crowded or unsanitary conditions: In areas with inadequate sanitation and hygiene practices, the risk of rotavirus transmission is higher. Lack of clean water, poor sanitation facilities, and crowded living conditions can contribute to the spread of the virus.

It's important to note that while certain individuals may be at a higher risk of rotavirus disease, anyone can contract the infection if exposed to the virus. Practicing good hygiene, such as proper handwashing and maintaining clean environments, can help reduce the risk of infection for individuals of all ages. Vaccination against rotavirus is also an effective measure in preventing severe rotavirus gastroenteritis, particularly in high-risk populations such as infants and young children.
