Abstract

Rotavirus infections were detected by electron microscopy examinations in 54 of 66 children (82%) with acute gastroenteritis which necessitated admission to hospital during April to July, 1979, in the Highlands of Papua New Guinea. Longitudinal epidemiological studies may confirm rotavirus infections to be more important aetiolgical agents of childhood gastroenteritis in this region than in many other countries studied to date.
