Just Norovirus, nasty but non-fatal; however, it is infecting a hospital
Norovirus outbreak at Hawke's Bay Hospital17 Oct, 2017 2:58pm By: Anneke Smith Strict infection control has been put in place at the Hawke's Bay Hospital after a norovirus outbreak. Seven patients and 30 hospital staff are thought to have the highly contagious vomiting and diarrhoea bug. Control measures were in place in some of the hospital wards to prevent the spread of the bug. "If you are unwell with vomiting and diarrhoea or have been around people who have been unwell - please do not visit the hospital for at least 48 hours." "To help prevent the spread of the virus it was very important for anyone with nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach cramps to stay away from work for 48 hours after symptoms disappear. He said sick children should also be kept away from school for the same period of time, he said. Source: http:///www.nzherald.co.nz/hawkes-bay-today/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503462&objectid=11933965 |
