Advis rGl bal

Norovirus is the most contagious of all viruses and very tough to beat. A member of the Calici virus family it has a very tough protein outer coat compared to other viruses like influenza. As few as 10 viral particles can initiate a Norovirus infection and transmission occurs through ingesting

contaminated food or water and by person to person contact. Norovirus can also be aerolised from sufferer’s vomit and the virus continues to be

shed from patients days after symptoms disappear.There is no vaccine or other effective treatment.

Prevention is the best and only cure and Global Medics has a whole range of products to help you say ‘No to Norovirus’ in your healthcare facility.
