Rotovirus
Rotavirus is the most common cause of severe
diarrhea among children, The incubation period for
rotavirus disease is approximately 2 days. Vomiting and watery
diarrhea for 3 - 8 days are characteristic for the disease, as
well as fever and abdominal pain. Immunity after infection is
incomplete, but repeat infections tend to be less severe than
the original infection. Hospitalization can be necessary
due to dehydration. Rotovirus is a common cause of death in
third world countries. Maintaining adequate hydration is
mainstay therapy. Walk in Clinics are not typically set up
to handle therapy for severely dehydrated children, thus
evaluation and treatment in the closest Emergency Room is
advisable.
