Travelers to England Should Protect Against Norovirus
They call it the Winter Vomiting Disease in England, but even when you call it by its more common name here, Norovirus, it's gross, and there's an outbreak overseas. According to the BBC, so far this season, more than 2.8 million have been affected in the UK, twice as many as last year. It's not typically dangerous, unless you consider a few days of vomiting and other stuff treachery, but it can lead to dangerous dehydration if you don't push liquids (especially in the very young and very old).
So if you are headed to Merry Ol' England this winter, you may want to invest in some Merry Ol' hand sanitizer and a few bottles of water.
Oh yeah, and check to make sure your Air Ambulance Card membership is activated.
