Micronutrient intervention using zinc and vitamin A has been very important in its impact on childhood diarrheal disease in developing countries. Vaccines for rotavirus and bacterial pathogens such as enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Shigella and Salmonella now seem feasible, New diagnostic methods have been useful in defining new viral causes of diarrhea.
