According to statistics, most children under the age of 2 suffer from rotavirus disease once, and children under the age of 5 - twice.
The most dangerous thing in rotavirus disease is general intoxication of the body, which quickly leads to dehydration, especially at the age of 2 years. It is extremely important to protect the baby in the first months, when the threat of dehydration and complications from this disease is the highest.
Currently, in Ukraine, children are vaccinated with the Rotarix vaccine. This is a safe vaccine in the form of a solution - drops, which we advise you to do as soon as possible.
Vaccination is carried out twice, with a break of 30 days, and what is most important, the course must be completed before the baby is 24 weeks old. Our doctors consider 2-4 months to be the most favorable age for vaccinating a baby against rotavirus infection.
The Rotarix vaccine against rotavirus infection is available at Mother's House, the pediatrician's consultation is included in the price.
