fast flu

I know 4 people who've fallen ill of sudden flu in the UK in the last week. Nasty.

"Noroviruses are a group of viruses that are the most common cause of gastroenteritis (stomach bugs) in England and Wales. In the past, noroviruses have also been called ‘winter vomiting viruses’, ‘small round structured viruses’ or ‘Norwalk-like viruses’."
