Norovirus Is Back—And It’s a New Strain?!

Norovirus season is already making headlines, and get this: there’s a new dominant strain (GII.17) taking over the U.S. It’s been behind 75% of outbreaks this year, and cases spiked way earlier than usual—think October, not December. Outbreaks even hit a decade-high this past winter! Scientists aren’t sure if this new strain means we’ll see another early surge, but they’re keeping a close eye. Wash those hands, people! #Norovirus #HealthNews #StaySafe #Health
