- Abstract
Rotavirus causes approximately one-third to one-half (55,000-70,000 hospitalizations per year) of hospitalizations for acute gastroenteritis (AGE) among US children <5 years of age. We forecasted the potential reduction in the number of hospitalizations for rotavirus disease and AGE in US children during 2006-2015 as a result of the new rotavirus vaccine introduced in 2006.
