Abstract

Rotavirus remains a significant global health concern, particularly affecting infants and young children. This paper delves into the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and preventive strategies associated with rotavirus infections. Despite advancements in vaccination programs, rotavirus continues to contribute to a substantial burden of childhood morbidity and mortality worldwide. The paper underscores the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to mitigate the severity of the disease. Additionally, it explores the challenges in vaccine implementation in resource-limited settings and proposes innovative solutions to enhance vaccine coverage. Ultimately, this review emphasizes the urgent need for comprehensive strategies, including vaccination and public health interventions, to effectively combat the baby bug that is rotavirus.
