Norovirus is a very contagious
virus that causes vomiting and diarrhea.
Anyone can get infected and sick with norovirus.
You can get norovirus from:
Having direct contact with an infected person.
Consuming contaminated food or water.
Touching contaminated surfaces and then
putting your unwashed hands in your mouth.
Norovirus gives discomfort very similar
to that of Food Poisoning,
but the party can last a couple DAYS
rather than merely a couple HOURS.
In nursing homes,
Death is a frequent symptom.
