Abstract
Rotavirus gastroenteritis (RVGE) is a global public health challenge that seriously threatens the health of children under 5 years of age. In China, the burden associated with RVGE is substantial and its prevention and control are difficult. On the basis of Expert Consensus on Immunoprophylaxis of Childhood Rotavirus Gastroenteritis (2020 Version) and Rotavirus Vaccines: WHO Position Paper-July 2021, in this updated consensus we systematically review advances in RVGE epidemiological research; safety, effectiveness/efficacy, and immune persistence of post-marketing rotavirus (RV) vaccines; and RV immunization strategies. We also provide guidance for RVGE diagnosis and treatment. Following the principles of prioritizing prevention and integrating medical and preventive approaches, we aim to facilitate the implementation of comprehensive prevention and control measures focusing on RV vaccination to reduce the childhood RVGE disease burden and provide reference for professionals working for disease control and prevention, vaccination, clinical diagnosis and treatment, and related fields.
