Characterization of rotavirus strains detected in Windhoek, Namibia during 1998-1999.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 1 Sept 2010

Page Nicola, Pager Cara, Steele A Duncan

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Namibia, located on the southwestern coast of southern Africa, is characterized by vast deserts, limited fresh water, and low population density. Mortality estimates among children <5 of age are 63 deaths per 1000 live-births, with diarrheal diseases contributing to 3% of these deaths. Data on the burden of rotavirus disease and circulating serotypes in Namibia are currently not available. MATERIALS...
