RESUMO
Rotavirus VP7 serotypes were identified in stools from 72.9% (1,302/1,784) of hospitalized Australian children in six cities (1989 to 1992) and comprised 1,088 (83.6%) serotype G1 isolates, 84 (6.4%) serotype G2 isolates, 64 (4.9%) serotype G3 isolates, 49 (3.8%) serotype G4 isolates, and 17 (1.3%) isolates of mixed serotypes. The most densely populated cities yielded the greatest diversity of serotypes.
