Abstract
Highlighting rotavirus (RV) as a significant food and waterborne pathogen, particularly affecting infants and children, causing serious gastrointestinal infections and dehydration, is important. It should be noted that there are significant debates regarding the effectiveness and outcomes of RV vaccination. In contrast to Turkey's nonmandatory vaccination policy, many developed countries implement mandatory vaccination policies, raising questions about their impact on disease prevalence and healthcare expenditures. Our study aims to comprehensively understand RV infections in Turkey and compare them with countries that have mandatory vaccination policies. We found similar, and even better, hospitalization rates, length of hospital stays, and laboratory parameters demonstrating the effectiveness of Turkey's independent vaccination approach. These findings contribute valuable insights to global vaccination strategies and disease control.
期刊介绍：
Foodborne Pathogens and Disease is one of the most inclusive scientific publications on the many disciplines that contribute to food safety. Spanning an array of issues from "farm-to-fork," the Journal bridges the gap between science and policy to reduce the burden of foodborne illness worldwide.
Foodborne Pathogens and Disease coverage includes:
Agroterrorism
Safety of organically grown and genetically modified foods
Emerging pathogens
Emergence of drug resistance
Methods and technology for rapid and accurate detection
Strategies to destroy or control foodborne pathogens
Novel strategies for the prevention and control of plant and animal diseases that impact food safety
Biosecurity issues and the implications of new regulatory guidelines
Impact of changing lifestyles and consumer demands on food safety.
