The Tower, the student newspaper of Catholic University, is reporting that the D.C. Department of Health has confirmed an outbreak of Norovirus on the Northeast campus. More than 23 students have been confirmed to have fallen ill due to the virus since January 21.
An outbreak of Norovirus affected more than 130 Catholic students in 2006. More recently, an incidence of the virus affected some 200 students at Georgetown University in the fall of 2008. Symptoms of the virus can include flu-like symptoms, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.



So how exactly am I supposed to tell whether I have the Norovirus or whether I've just had one too many chili-cheese halfsmokes?
As opposed to one of your normal, Achtung SCHNELL!! bowel movements? It is impossible. Inconceivable, even!

It's spelled S-U-P-E-R-H-A-N-G-O-V-E-R.
Uh, I'm pretty sure I had that a week and a half ago. Seriously, symptoms all match up and I was down and out for about 3 days.
So... should Dustin Hoffman in a biohazard suit come to my apartment? Or perhaps we should just consult the wikipedia article and learn its lay-term is "The Stomach Flu."
Wikipedia has demonstrated its usefulness once again beyond recapping Six Feet Under episodes and Anna Nicole Smith factoids!
This is clearly the work of Satan.
Can we assume a bit of person-to-person contact led to this outbreak? Rhymes with dryhumping, if you catch my meaning. .
Randy papists can't keep their hands off each other.
It wasn't the Norovirus, it was just Pryz food.
