About our Norovirus news

Latest news on norovirus, a virus that causes vomiting and diarrhea. It is also known as the 'stomach flu'. It is the most common cause of gastroenteritis, which is an inflammation of the stomach and intestines. The virus is highly contagious and is spread through contact with contaminated food or surfaces. It can also be spread through contact with infected people. Symptoms typically begin 12-48 hours after exposure and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. Most people recover within a few days, but some may experience dehydration, which can be dangerous. There is no specific treatment for norovirus, but drinking plenty of fluids and getting rest is important. Prevention of norovirus is through good hygiene, such as washing hands thoroughly and often.
