Norovirus came to town and we were some of the first victims. My family has been knocked out for a couple of days with the littlest and the oldest victims having the hardest time.

Five days on and the youngest can still only eat a snack sized portion of food or she vomits. If its headed your direction (MD, near PA border) then run and hide, it was evil!

Time to get out the bleach! I was on a cruise once when it hit, and everyone went down with it. The cruise was grounded as there was no one to staff the ship basically.

A friend of mine just pointed out the difference betwixt norovirus and influenza. I had always thought the "stomach bug" was a form of flu but it's not. Apparently I have not really had the flu for a number of years but the norovirus seems to enjoy an annual visit.

It seems that many people in the NE states are getting this, my friend who is in Baltimore just had something similar.

I work in a call centre and you should see flu and Norovirus rip through the place every winter. Somehow I don't think humans were meant to function in this kind of environment.
