The norovirus is absolutely awful this year. My kid was sick for over 10 days. Definitely wash hands.

MODERATORS
I had it. 2 days. Very sudden onset. Very violent puking.
Me too! First time in 18 years that I vomited and it was intense.
Norovirus suuuucks! I had it 2013, when I was doing my turn in our conscription military.
Usually you get to go home from Saturday morning until Sunday night, but they isolated the sick ones, to make sure we wouldn't infect others on the way home by train, or at home.
Lucky for me I got my symptoms when I was home already, so instead I wasn't allowed to travel back in.
But the virus was bad. Fluids shooting violently out of both ends and you feel sick as a dog all the while. I think it was intense but at least short. Maybe 3 days or so.
Wash your hands. Get your annual vaccines. Better late than never.
Norovirus vaccine isn't out yet unfortunately. But still a good suggestion
True, but flu and covid vaccines are available for nearly everyone. RSV vaccine is available for certain people where I am.
Same here in Switzerland, RSV vaccines are available for people aged 60 or over or the pregnant. The other two I got in November.
Don't forget, take your ivermectin, consume bleach and find some way of getting sunlight into your body. 😛
sun your taint
For the outside looking in, it seems you guys all get really really sick whenever Donald Trump is in charge. I'm not suggesting a connection, but it is weird.
Can you chaps build that wall already, and please be so kind as to stay unhygienic inside it? And don’t go around blaming Chinese bats this time, I got me eyes on you .. from a social distance.
While at it, please build one on the north too
Touché guvna, enjoy your evening crumpets.
