Nearly every child is at risk of infection regardless of where he/she lives, hygiene practicing or as success to safe drinking water or sanitation. A vaccine for rotavirus infections was recently introduced in Sudan 2 years back, but not reliable data about its coverage rate and efficacy are available. This study was mainly concerned with the assessment of rotavirus vaccination coverage rate among under 5 years old children within the context of the aforementioned hospital as an area of study and during that specified period of time, and to identify, if any association between some of the variable handled. The study was carried out at Al Gadarif hospital, where 2921 medical records charts of under 5 years old children with diarrhea attended the hospital during the specified period were involved. The study was an observational complete coverage hospital –based one (retrospective). A data collection sheet (DCS) was used in the collection of the required. The collected data were then analyzed using SPSS. The study showed that 492 out of 2921 (16.8%) of the children who attended the hospital during the period (2012- 2013) were found to have been vaccinated against rotavirus infection.
