[00:00:00]Norovirus has had a small uptick in the United States. Now, for those of you who don't know, norovirus is one of those viruses that causes intense nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. It only lasts for 3 or 4 days, but during those 3 or 4 days, you are going to be pretty much attached to the bathroom. You're not going to venture far from it. Might I suggest investing in a bidet because it will help things in the end. And norovirus is intense and it is highly communicable. You probably heard about this virus on ships. And on ships, these viruses pass back and forth because the air isn't circulated well, people are close together, people are eating over the face and spreading all of their germs all over. And norovirus stays on surfaces for days. It is very easy to get. You contact it from another individual. You get it on a surface. You talk I mean, if you don't think about how much surface contamination you get, get a pair of glasses and look and see how disgustingly dirty they become from your own fingerprints.

[00:00:58]That happens to your mouth and to your nose, also. That's how these viruses spread. So, please be careful. If you have any friends who have nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, leave them some chicken soup or some nice pho. Leave it on the door. They can come to the door and get it and then before they return to the bathroom. Don't go shaking their hands and hugging them as much as they might like a hug. Unless you want to join them and compete for bathroom privileges. I'm Dr. Simpson. If you like this information, give me a follow.
