Virology
Rotavirus is a highly contagious virus that primarily affects infants and young children, causing severe gastroenteritis and diarrhea. It is known for its ability to spread easily via the fecal-oral route, leading to widespread outbreaks, especially in places like daycare centers and hospitals. The virus’s structure and replication cycle are essential for understanding how it enters host cells, replicates its genome, and ultimately causes disease.
