Children's periods are divided according to his psychophysical development.
Newborns, infants and toddlers are a sensitive group of children. Children are
very early included in institutional care. Most often, it is a kindergarten because
it accepts the child usually positive impulses from the environment. Where
many children are confronted, there is a possibility of infection with a rotavirus.
The reason for the publication of the report was the observation of the events
in large shopping centers, where mothers and children meet and wander. In
the survey we used the questionnaire to interview 40 graduated nurses and 26
mothers of diseased children. It is possible to observe the difference between
the opinions of graduated nurses and the opinions of mothers about the place
of the infection. Other major deviations in the opinion of the respondents are
not observed. Rotavirus is transmitted directly with a faecal-oral infection, and
indirectly with various sources of infection. As we have learned from the sur-
vey, more often get rotavirus children who are led to shopping centers for a
walk by relatives than those who are in kindergartens. Problems with the child
are mainly seen as diarrhea and its consequences. Sickness in the child is often
very serious, therefore experts recommend vaccination and compliance with
measures to prevent infection.
