| Abstract | Flooding on 1 of the Solomon Islands precipitated a nationwide epidemic of diarrhea that spread to regions unaffected by flooding and caused >6,000 cases and 27 deaths. Rotavirus was identified in 38% of case-patients in the city with the most flooding. Outbreak potential related to weather reinforces the need for global rotavirus vaccination. |
