So in the local paper this morning there was an article about norovirus hitting hard in the neighboring county to where I live; I literally live right on the border of the two counties. They said its a strain from Australia that people haven't been exposed to before, and that it has been hitting the area very badly. They haven't found an outbreak of it yet in my county, but as I live right next to it I know it will hit my area first. It's making me very paranoid and I'm not sure there is anything I can do. I've already heard of a few friends and people in my area becoming very ill and it could have been the virus. I hate this time of year!!
