Brief Summary

This phase III trial aims to assess the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of Rotavirus RV3 Vaccine (Bio Farma) in neonates, lot-to-lot consistency, and antigen interference with co-administered EPI vaccines

Detailed Description

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity following three doses of rotavirus RV3 vaccine (Bio Farma) administered as a neonatal schedule
