Epidemiology

Rotavirus (Rv) is an important pathogen causing viral diarrhea and enteritis in infants worldwide^[1], belonging to the reovirus family, is a double-stranded RNA virus. Group A rotavirus is the main pathogen causing severe diarrhea in infants and young children^[2]. Rotavirus with the virus excreted feces, through the fecal route infected patients^[3], the proliferation of cells in the duodenal mucosa of the children affected the normal absorption of salts, sugars and water in the intestines of the children, resulting in diarrhea^[4].

Adenovirus (Adv) belongs to the Adenovirus family. Type 40 and 41 of Group F can induce diarrhea in infants. They are the second most important pathogen in viral diarrhea in children, next to rotavirus. The main transmission route of adenovirus is fecal-oral transmission, the incubation period of infection is about 10 days, and the main symptoms are diarrhea, accompanied by vomiting and fever^[5].
