pubmed:abstractText |
Children from the highlands of Papua New Guinea, hospitalized for severe diarrhoea, were examined for clinical signs and the presence of rotaviruses. Rotavirus was detected in faecal samples from 68% (23/38) of patients examined. In contrast to other studies, an excess of respiratory symptoms was not observed and the infection rate of disease due to rotavirus was relatively high in children under 6 months of age. In an environment where pigs and humans share close contact a rotavirus strain infecting piglets was also demonstrated.
