Abstract
During a prospective 3-year study, clinical and epidemiological features of rotavirus gastroenteritis in black infants were investigated. Fever and temperatures exceeding 39°C were more frequent in children shedding subgroup II rotaviruses, whereas vomiting was more pronounced in children with subgroup I infection. Diarrhea, dehydration, duration of illness, and the need for admission to a hospital ward were similar in both groups.
