Norovirus is a highly contagious virus that causes gastroenteritis, which is inflammation of the stomach and intestines. Infection with norovirus leads to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps. It is commonly spread through contaminated food, water, surfaces, and close contact with infected individuals. Norovirus outbreaks are often associated with places where large groups of people gather, such as cruise ships, schools, and nursing homes. Due to its resilience against many disinfectants and its ability to survive on surfaces for extended periods, norovirus can spread rapidly. Good hygiene practices, such as frequent handwashing and thorough cleaning of contaminated surfaces, are essential for prevention. There is no specific treatment for norovirus infection; management typically focuses on staying hydrated and resting.
