Last year I got the Noro virus from eating at a restaurant. Ate with two friends and the next day all three of us got it. I called the health dept and they did an inspection to find the restaurant staff had been sick that week with Noro virus. They were preparing cold sandwiches without using gloves as well. I had the chicken salad which was a cold sandwich and so did my tablemates. I spent the night in the emergency room after throwing up for 7 hours straight.

This time of the year I stay out of large crowds of people, I eat only hot foods at restaurants. I wash my hands constantly when I'm out and as soon as I go home. I was in the urgent care today and so many sick people there many were wearing masks. I had to move my seat two times because of coughing sick people sitting next to me. Trying so hard not to get the flu.
