Abstract
We describe the first case of a previously asymptomatic infant who developed a severe vaccine-acquired rotavirus infection after receiving the first Rotarix dose, associating lymphopenia and hypoalbuminemia. The high similarity to the Rotarix vaccine strain and the failure to detect other common enteric pathogens reassure the likelihood of infection caused by the vaccine-derived strain.
