Abstract

Rotavirus was present in 1,367 of 7,060 stool samples (19.4%) collected in Gyeonggi province of South Korea from 2003 through 2005. The predominant genotypes were confirmed as G4/P2A[6] (19.0%) followed by G3/P1A[8] (15.6%), G2/P1B[4] (9.3%), and G1/P1A[8] (6.5%). The predominant types of rotavirus by year were G3/P[8] in 2003, G4/P[6] in 2004, and G1/P[8] in 2005. The prevalent rotavirus genotypes changed constantly from 2003 to 2005.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
