Is immunity developed in a person who has recovered from a rotavirus infection or other gastrointestinal infections? Does anyone know?

Not very sturdy. It's easy to jump in for a second round.

For a couple of weeks.
Then again.
Or, if there is a different strain there, go ahead immediately.

No.
It is possible to have reinfection within the next month. (A common scenario.)

Rotavirus and gastroenteritis are different things. You can contract rotavirus, but it doesn't last long. Gastroenteritis infections can vary. For example, immunity to Salmonella lasts about six months.

Tatyana The children first had a gastrointestinal illness, and two weeks later contracted rotavirus.

There are so many kinds there that one may end while another begins.
It seems like about a month after a rotavirus infection, but again, it just depends on luck.

Rotavirus, yes—but only for a short time. And you can catch a bacterial gastroenteritis or food poisoning a hundred times in a row, even concurrently with rotavirus.

Tatyana It's hard to cope with this, especially when your body feels weak.
