Research Abstract |
We have investigated to know the real situation of diarrheal disease outbreak in Kenya. We studies cholera outbreak started from South Nyanza in 2008 and diarrheal outbreak in Mandella near Somali border. We have also investigated causative agents among pediatric cases less than 5 years of age to evaluate the significance as diarrheagenic agents in the urbanized setting from 2008 to 2009. It reveals that Rota virus is an only major causative agent of diarrheal diseases and classical enteropathogens seemed to be no longer major diarrheagenic agents.
