Overview

Rotavirus clinical manifestations usually start to develop two days after the infection. It's severity depends on whether it is the first infection or recurrent one. The first infection is more severe. It may be asymptomatic or causes watery diarrhea and in very severe cases it may cause severe dehydration. The children infected by the rotavirus present with high grade fever as well as vomiting.
