flag The NHS advises norovirus patients to stay home for 48 hours after symptoms end to prevent spreading the virus.

flag The NHS is advising people with norovirus—characterized by sudden vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and stomach cramps—to stay home for at least two days after symptoms end to prevent spreading the highly contagious virus. flag Most cases resolve within one to two days with rest, hydration, and good hygiene, including frequent handwashing and disinfecting surfaces. flag The health service recommends avoiding fruit juice and carbonated drinks, which can worsen diarrhea, and using paracetamol for discomfort, with caution in children. flag Norovirus spreads easily through close contact, contaminated surfaces, or food, and outbreaks are common in winter. flag Individuals should avoid schools, workplaces, hospitals, and care homes until symptom-free for 48 hours.
