The Belgian Institute of Public Health registered from 2000 to 2005 a yearly average of 6,790 hospital admissions for rotavirus gastroenteritis in children less than 5 years of age. Very efficacious rotavirus vaccines are available nowadays. The surveillance of hospitalisation due to rotavirus gastroenteritis is a good target for the follow-up of vaccine-related prevention. In a large regional Belgian hospital, rotavirus is associated with 12% to 21% of all hospitalisation days among children less than 2 years of age. The general implementation of rotavirus vaccination could dramatically reduce the hospitalisation of young children due to rotavirus gastroenteritis in developed countries.
比利时公共卫生研究所记录显示，2000年至2005年期间，5岁以下儿童因轮状病毒肠胃炎每年平均有6790例住院病例。如今有非常有效的轮状病毒疫苗。对轮状病毒肠胃炎住院情况的监测是疫苗相关预防措施后续跟进的一个良好目标。在比利时一家大型地区医院，轮状病毒导致2岁以下儿童住院天数占总住院天数的12%至21%。在发达国家，普遍接种轮状病毒疫苗可大幅减少幼儿因轮状病毒肠胃炎而住院的情况。
