Norovirus is a stomach bug that causes diarrhoea and vomiting. If you catch it, it’s important to stay hydrated. And the number of people with the virus is quite high at the moment.
If you happen to get it, these other things will help too:
• Get lots of rest
• Take paracetamol if you’re in discomfort
• Eat when you feel able to
Norovirus can be very unpleasant but typically goes away in about 2 days. You can usually treat yourself at home.
