So… what changed?\n\nIn this episode of A Podful of Pediatrics, we dig into:\n- What rotavirus actually does to the body (yes, including that awful diarrhea)\n- How it spreads, who’s most at risk, and complications you might not expect (like seizures)\n- The rise, fall, and re-invention of the rotavirus vaccine\n- The real numbers behind hospitalizations vs. vaccine risk\n\nPlus, Dr. Corinda shares a personal (and hilariously messy) story about just how fast rotavirus can strike.\n\nWhether you’re a parent, a med student, or just vaccine-curious, this episode delivers the science and the stories behind one of pediatrics’ biggest success stories.\n\n🎧 Subscribe for more pediatric deep-dives you can trust.\n\nMyth busted: VAERS data doesn’t come from secret government labs—it’s a public reporting system anyone can use, and every report is reviewed for safety signals, not proof of causation."}
