Over 750,000 People Affected by Norovirus
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) has informed that there are more than 750,000 people who have been affected by norovirus in the UK. The season is expected to get worse than ever, but the HPA said they are not able to detect the reason for the same.
While explaining the rise in the number, an HPA spokesman said with every reported case there are 288 unreported cases of norovirus. This means that there are 757,440 people who are affected by norovirus, which is said to be a 72% increase.
"Laboratory confirmed reports represent only a small proportion of the actual amount of norovirus activity in the community, because the vast majority of affected people do not access health care", said a spokesperson from the HPA.
John Harris, an expert of norovirus, said they have witnessed a mild decline in the number of cases been reported. As per December 2, 236 cases were reported and 327 cases were reported till November 25.
It is needed that people should remain conscious about their hygiene. Moreover people suffering from norovirus symptoms should not visit their friends and relatives as it can affect others as well.
