Well I had to google it 'cos I didn't have a clue what it was!
Have to say having read about it, I'm not too bothered
Its just the shits ...I think we will live lol
Norovirus can be highly infectious and causes gastro-related illnesses like diarrhoea and vomiting and it's people such as the elderly, young babies and people who are already ill who can be the most severly affected. It's more often spread through hospitals, schools and the like because it can be airborne when an infected person vomits. Good standards of hygiene can reduce the spread of the virus and thorough hand washing is essential both at home and in work.
Alcohol-based hand gels are now widely available in supermarkets and are an excellent way to keep cross infection of ANY virus to a minimum. Get into the habit of carrying a small bottle around with you and use it as often as you can between hand washes.
Ah so now theyve invented a name for what I had the week before last. The week I started this horrible cold virus thing!
