There’s no such thing as “intestinal flu” or “stomach flu”. Flu is a viral infection that affects the whole body, and last several days to a week. What people call “stomach flu” is really just food poisoning.

Well the germs can be ingested in other manners than their being in food.

I had Norovirus last fall. It only affected the digestive system and it affected that BIG TIME! Lasted for 3 days.
