How common is it to get sick (rotavirus/stomach virus) at Turkish all-inclusive resorts?

A 4-year-old drank pool water and put hands in mouth with no issues at all, great trip overall. Meanwhile another child who stayed at the same hotel just a few days earlier got 3 days of fever and food-poisoning symptoms — it really seems to be luck of the draw.

One traveler asked in the chat whether sick guests (viral infections) were commonly seen among other tourists during that period.

In September, one family caught a virus brought in by other tourists (not rotavirus), and didn't notice any hygiene issues at the hotel. Friends who traveled in October to the same destination had no virus problems at all and had a great trip — so it seems to depend more on the specific group of guests than the month itself.
