As our ability to control many of the common infectious diseases has increased, attention has turned toward the less common or less severe infections. It is clear that worldwide, significant numbers of the cases of gastroenteritis in both adults and children are caused by viruses. Many of these viruses now are quite well understood and their control appears to be on the horizon. Many other etiologic agents are just being identified and will present a challenge to researchers and practitioners alike.
