Abstract

The authors explore the importance of birth cohorts in understanding norovirus infection, epidemiology and immunity. They note on the importance of birth cohort studies in understanding the acquisition of protective immunity against a pathogen. They mention a birth cohort study in Mexico which showed that severe disease is restricted to the first 2 infections, that each infection reduces future disease risk.
