Competing Interests
I have read the journal's policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following competing interests: During this research, KNM, JAF, KDCL and JCV's employment at PATH was supported by research grants for rotavirus vaccines from the Gavi Alliance and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. During the writing of this manuscript, KDCL was an employee of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on the Pneumonia team. During the writing of this manuscript, AJF was employed by Novartis Vaccines when it was acquired by GlaxoSmithKline, the maker of Rotarix; however, for the six-month period while AJF was employed by GSK, she did not work on company projects related to rotavirus vaccines. LHM serves on an advisory board for Merck for one of its respiratory vaccines; Merck has a competitor rotavirus vaccine.
