Rotavirus is one of the main pathogens that cause diarrhea in infants and young children. It mainly infects small intestinal epithelial cells, causing cell damage and causing diarrhea.

Rotavirus gastroenteritis is a mild to severe illness with symptoms such as vomiting, water

Diarrhea and a low-grade fever. Symptoms usually begin with vomiting, followed by four to eight days of heavy diarrhea. Rotavirus infection causes dehydration more often than bacterial pathogens that are more likely to cause dehydration, and therefore dehydration has become the most common cause of death in rotavirus infection.

Most adults are not susceptible to rotavirus because of immunity acquired during childhood; gastroenteritis in adults is usually due to other causes rather than rotavirus, but asymptomatic infection in adults can still be contagious in the community. Symptomatic reinfection usually results from infection with a different rotavirus A serotype.

Doctors say that after a person is infected with rotavirus, the virus becomes most active 3-5 days later. Therefore, the patient's initial symptoms may not be diarrhea. They may have cold symptoms such as fever, cough, and sore throat. Some patients may have bowel movements several times a day, accompanied by vomiting and abdominal pain, and are easily misdiagnosed as having a gastrointestinal cold. However, if dehydration occurs, it is time to pay attention.
