Several staffers for the Republican National Convention in Cleveland are reportedly being quarantined after falling ill from the norovirus.

Nearly a dozen California Republican staffers are being quarantined an hour outside of Cleveland in an effort to prevent the spread of the virus, according to Stat News.

The GOP staffers displayed symptoms of norovirus, but health officials are still running tests to confirm the cause of their illness.

“We’ve got about 11 who have been sick over the last few days, and we’ve been out there every day and working with them to eliminate the spread [between] the resort and the delegation from California,” Erie County Health Commissioner Peter Schade told Stat News.

Looks like it’s part of the CA delegation, hopefully they keep them isolated.

Kalahari. Noro virus isn’t their only problem (think “sleep tight, and don’t let the...”)
