There are lots of intestinal issues affecting Americans at the moment, Listeria and C-Diff among them. I was hospitalized less than 2 weeks ago with C-Diff.

( ~2,500 norovirus outbreaks reported annually / 346,364,845 population of US ) / x 100 = 0.0007 % risk of contracting this "media sensation."

the main thing to know is they’re all lab made and released in time for Trump’s inauguration in an effort to distract and derail any and all efforts to curtail the deep state

Bad sanitary habits….especially from our “newcomers”!

Mayo Clinic
Norovirus. Norovirus is the most common cause of viral gastroenteritis. With norovirus, you can be contagious before you feel ill. Symptoms usually appear within 1 to 2 days being exposed to the virus.

Most people with norovirus feel better a day or two after their symptoms begin. But they’re contagious for a few days after they recover. The virus can stay in the stool for two weeks or more after recovery.

Children should stay home from school or child care for at least two days after the last time they vomit or have diarrhea.

How do you get it? Most norovirus outbreaks occur when people who are already infected spread the virus to others by direct means, such as through sharing food or eating utensils. Outbreaks can also be spread through food, water or contaminated surfaces.

Sounds easy enough to control.

Be clean and avoid eating in public settings for a while.

Visited a very, very sick neighbor yesterday - looked like death warmed over, said he’d been flat on his back in bed, in utter misery for eight days and couldn’t eat. Tested negative for COVID. I told him to go to urgent care immediately but he refused. I kept my distance.

The medical community and government needs to identify which type of viruses are prevalent, RSV, COVID, norovirus, etc. - and recommend treatment.

It’s the usual cold and flu season. It’s Climate change.

And climate change is killing the trees by making their leaves fall off.

Send Al Bore and little Gretchen money and they’ll make it stop until next year.

My 24 year old daughter and her boyfriend are sick with a rona.

Both in the health field and fully vaxxed as required by their schools and employers.

They were here for Christmas.
Everyone I know that has had a cold for the last 2 years has been fully vaxxed up.

The last 3 times I have seen a doctor, they all had the sniffles.

I am pureblooded doing just fine.

Just getting over this, flat ginger ale helps with the nausea.
