We estimated the number of nosocomial infections overall and by age-group for norovirus gastroenteritis (NGE) using federal German databases. All hospitalizations in Germany are registered with the German Federal Statistics Office (DESTATIS).

Cases with a non-primary diagnoses were assumed to be due to nosocomial infection.
