Rotavirus infection is common in childhood. We report a 2-year-old boy admitted to hospital with gastro-enteritis who suffered cardio-respiratory arrest and died. Autopsy showed evidence of rotavirus-associated myocarditis and pneumonitis. We are not aware of any previous report of death from this type of consequence of rotavirus infection.
