July 1st 2011 10:59
Gastroenteritis or "stomach virus" is a viral infection of the small intestine that usually lasts 24 to 72 hours. The virus which causes this disease is easily transmitted through unwashed hands that serve food or beverages. A stomach virus is a virus that infects the lining of the gastrointestinal tract causing irritation, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea. It is transmitted from human to human through hand contact with a surface or other hand that has been exposed to the virus, or through an exchange of sputum infected with the virus such as through cough propelled fluids.
Stomach viruses are viruses that cause gastrointestinal illness, such as vomiting and diarrhea. They can be spread by drinking infected water, touching bodily fluids of an infected individual, or eating food by someone who is infected and did not adequately wash their hands. Common stomach viruses include Rotavirus and Norwalk virus.
