From the article:" The security guards who came down with the virus were all staying at a youth center in the PyeongChang area,
and reported experiencing headaches, stomach pain and diarrhea.
They were treated and quarantined."

Considering all the touching and security check points,
I imagine that the norovirus could spread internationally via observers
and thorough the athletic community, despite the fact that it is a 'closed community'
but they also would have to go through security check points too !
