The most common symptoms of rotavirus are severe watery diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and/or abdominal pain.

Symptoms usually start about 2 days after a person is exposed to rotavirus. Vomiting and watery diarrhea can last 3 to 8 days. Additional symptoms may include loss of appetite and dehydration (loss of body fluids), which can be especially dangerous for infants and young children.

Symptoms of dehydration include:

decreased urination

dry mouth and throat

feeling dizzy when standing up

crying with few or no tears and

unusual sleepiness or fussiness.

Rotavirus disease is most common in infants and young children. However, older children and adults also can get sick from rotavirus. Adults who get rotavirus disease tend to have milder symptoms.

Rotavirus is a genus of double-stranded RNA viruses in the family Reoviridae. Rotaviruses are the most common cause of diarrheal disease among infants and young children. Nearly every child in the world is infected with a rotavirus at least once by the age of five. Immunity develops with each infection, so subsequent infections are less severe. Adults are rarely affected (More)

There is no specific medicine to treat rotavirus infection, but your doctor may recommend medicine to treat the symptoms.Since rotavirus disease can cause severe vomiting and diarrhea, it can lead to dehydration (loss of body fluids). The best way to protect against dehydration is to drink plenty of liquids. You can get oral rehydration solutions over the counter in U.S. food and drug stores; these are most helpful for mild dehydration.(More)

Vaccination: To protect your child from rotavirus, administer the first vaccine dose before 15 weeks of age and all doses before 8 months of age.

Prevention:

Avoid putting your unwashed hands that are contaminated with poop into your mouth

touching contaminated objects or surfaces and then put your fingers in your mouth
