Catch-up schedule: If an infant has NOT had a dose of any rotavirus vaccine AND is ≥ 15 weeks then that infant is NOT ELIGIBLE to commence any rotavirus vaccination dose.1
Preterm infants: Vaccine is administered at a chronologic age (without correction for prematurity) similar to term infants, if the infant is clinically stable.1
Hospitalised infants: If standard infection control precautions are maintained and the infant is medically stable, vaccination should not be delayed, particularly if the delay would result in an infant being beyond the upper age limit for vaccination.1
