Norovirus cases are currently higher than normal across mid and south Essex, particularly affecting those over the age of 65.
Norovirus is a stomach bug that causes diarrhoea and vomiting. If you catch norovirus, it’s important to rest and have plenty of fluids. You should stay at home until two days after your symptoms stop and wash your hands to prevent the spread of infection.
