❓️Did you know that you can track active respiratory illness in Virginia?

⚕️ The Virginia Department of Health maintains a weekly dashboard of information to help quell the spread of flu, COVID, and RSV in the Commonwealth.

📈📉 Tracking the spread of seasonal illness allows medical providers the ability to more easily diagnose and prevent the spread of infection, especially during peak season - winter holidays.

💊 Prevention is the best medicine.

🚻 Wash your hands frequently (we can't stress that one enough!)
🍊 Eat a healthy diet of foods rich in Vitamin C.
💉 Stay current on vaccinations.
🤢 If you are sick, please avoid public spaces as much as possible.

📍Visit www.vdh.virginia.gov/epidemiology/respiratory-diseases-in-virginia/data/ for more information.

🌲Healthy Holidays!

Stomach flu?❌️ Food poisoning? ❌️ Norovirus. 🤢 You don't want it.

🦠 Norovirus is a common and highly contagious virus spread via an infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces.

🤮 The illness often begins suddenly with severe stomach cramping, nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.

😭 It's awful, and it's here.

⚠️ People infected with norovirus are contagious from the moment they begin feeling ill to at least 3 days after recovery.

🚰🛏😷 There are no specific medicines to treat norovirus. Recovery includes hydration, rest, and isolation from others.

👐 🧼 Washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water is the best way to protect yourself and others from norovirus.
