## Abstract Noroviruses (NoVs) are the most common cause of acute nonβbacterial gastroenteritis outbreaks in the US. We investigated 16 gastroenteritis outbreaks in North Carolina (NC), from 1995 to 2000, to further characterize the epidemiology of NoV using RTβPCR on stool and ELISA on sera. NoV w
## Abstract Norovirus was identified in 30 of 59 gastroenteritis outbreaks occurring in the state of Victoria, Australia in 2001 by RTβPCR and/or electron microscopy (EM). Norovirus outbreaks occurred in hostels/nursing homes (27%), hospitals (13%), youth refuges (3%), social gatherings associated
## Abstract We compared the proportion and genotype distribution of norovirus (NoV) identified in sporadic acute gastroenteritis in children younger than 7 years old with the NoV strains found in outbreaks from January 2003 through April 2004 in northern Alberta, Canada. Eight genogroup I (GI) and
## Abstract Norovirus (NV), sapovirus (SV), and human astrovirus (HAstV) are important causes of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children. This study investigated the prevalence of NV, SV, and HAstV infections in children hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis in Chiang Mai, Thailand fr
