Associations between biomarkers of environmental enteric dysfunction and oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity in rural Zimbabwean infants

Associations between biomarkers of environmental enteric dysfunction and oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity in rural Zimbabwean infants

Background: Oral rotavirus vaccines (RVV) are poorly immunogenic in low-income countries. Environmental enteric dysfunction (EED) resulting from poor water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) may contribute.
