    It depends on how old your baby is. Rotavirus is different from the general gastrointestinal cold, which tends to last for about a week, and diarrhea alone can last up to 3 to 8 days. If you want to prevent it beforehand, consider taking an oral rotavirus vaccine.

    However, the first dose is best given at 2 months of age.

    There are two and three doses of rotavirus vaccine on the market. The first dose of the two-dose rotavirus vaccine should be taken 6 weeks after birth and at the latest before 16 weeks of age, the second dose should be taken at least 4 weeks after the first dose, and the second dose should be taken within 6 months of the baby. For the three-dose form, the first dose should be taken orally at 2 months of age, at the latest before 12 weeks of age, and every 2 months thereafter.

    2. The third dose, and the third dose should be taken within 8 months at the latest.

    At present, the rotavirus vaccine developed on the market is only an oral type, because the second dose form requires two doses, and the third dose form needs to take three doses to achieve a higher preventive effect, so if the last dose will be taken more than six months old, you need to discuss with your pediatrician, because the current large-scale trial of the second dose vaccine is only 6 months, and if the baby takes it for more than 6 months, the effect is less clear. As for the current large-scale trial of the three-dose vaccine, it is only 8 months old, so it is not recommended for babies over 8 months old. However, parents should know that the two vaccines cannot be mixed with each other, that is, once they choose to use a two-dose or three-dose vaccine, they must continue to use the same vaccine and complete the entire recommended time course to get the best prevention effect.

    It is best to get vaccinated before autumn, because the main purpose of the rota-shaped vaccine is to prevent diarrhea in autumn, and it will take some time after the vaccine to take effect. Therefore, it is necessary to fight before the high incidence of the disease.

    It is generally not necessary to take it.

    The rotavirus vaccine is a category 2 vaccine and requires a fee. And it's not cheap, we have 180 here in Chengdu

    It seems to be taken when I was 1 1/2 years old (I don't remember exactly).

    Since the vast majority of children have experienced viral dysentery by the age of 1 year (most of which are caused by rotavirus), a rotavirus vaccine is not necessary. Even if you don't take the rotavirus vaccine, you can only have a stomach poke once in the future. Rotavirus itself is self-limiting and has no serious symptoms.

    So, personal experience feels completely unnecessary.

    According to epidemiological data at home and abroad, about 50% of hospitalized children with diarrhea (under 5 years old) are caused by rotavirus. The cases are mainly concentrated between 6 months and 2 years old, and nearly half of them appear between 6 and 11 months old, so it is recommended that the rotavirus vaccine should be taken before the age of 6 months, so as to prevent the disease. If your child is more than 1 year old, there is little need for vaccination.

    And at present, there is only one domestic vaccine in China, and the post-marketing effect survey of this vaccine found that the domestic vaccine is not effective when vaccinated under the age of 8 months, and I personally think that it may be because the serotype of the domestic vaccine virus strain is not a common type in the world and China. Imported vaccines are being prepared to be marketed in China, and it is estimated that it will take next year. Therefore, my advice is not to take the shot, wait for the imported vaccine to go on the market, and if your child is not 6 months old, you can be vaccinated.

    Rotavirus is the most common cause of viral diarrhoea in infants and young children aged 3 months to 2 years. Rotavirus vaccine is not effective in prophylaxis but has few side effects, so vaccination may be considered.

    The rotavirus vaccine is given to infants and young children between the ages of 2 months and 3 years. The rotavirus vaccine can be given year-round, but it is not recommended during the autumn diarrhea season. The peak season of autumn diarrhea in northern China is from October to January of the following year, and the epidemic season of autumn diarrhea in southern China is from November to February of the following year.

    Generally, rotavirus vaccination is recommended between July and October. Unlike most vaccines, the rotavirus vaccine is a sweetened liquid that is given orally, one vial at a time, and should be taken once a year.

    If your baby is over 3 years old, he does not need to be vaccinated against rotavirus. Because even if he has not developed the disease, most of them have already been infected with rotavirus, and with antibodies in his body, the incidence will be significantly reduced.

    According to national regulations, children will receive the first dose at the age of 2 months and a booster dose at the age of 2. If the child is not vaccinated when the spine is not pressed due to physical condition or other reasons, it will be enough to make up for it later, but it should not be more than 1 year old.

    Suggestions: Rotavirus vaccine belongs to the second class of vaccines, which needs to be charged, ** before 148 yuan. However, because the diarrhea caused by rotavirus is very dangerous, it is best to vaccinate according to the regulations.
