Oh okay. I apologize for the misconception.

His pet rat was on my arm. Of course I washed it with soap and water beforehand, I just don’t think it would’ve done any good since I literally just rubbed soap then put it under the sink. That was...

Yes, I was. The reason he got sick is unknown. We both have OCD and usually want to keep as clean as possible, so I wouldn’t think his co workers got him sick. My grandma thinks he got sick due to...

I’m sorry about the constant posts once again. I’m literally having one of the worst weeks of my life. But from those of you who seen my posts, I have an uncle who had the SV & I been to the house a...

I think I just made matters even worse for myself.. I stuck my head & washed my mouth under the sink they washed their hands in.. what if their hands would touch the part where the water comes out?...

I’m at my grandparents’ house right now. My uncle had a stomach virus about 4 months ago and considering that there’s only one restroom in here, you have to be very cautious whenever someone’s sick....

Well.. I never got sick from my dad accidentally touching my mouth about a week ago. But I do have a new concern for today.

My mom’s boyfriend’s (we all live with him btw) dog had thrown up...

I honestly hope I don’t get sick. But I can’t say I will or I won’t and neither can y’all. Understandable. I really would like some comforting rather than reassurance. I’m hoping I’ll be fine but no...

Me, my mom, and my sister went to go meet my dad to get money. Upon gettin there, he opened the door to my sister’s side of the car to hug her and talk to her. He then went to my side & did the same....

I’m currently at my grandparents’ house and
if you’ve seen my, many, many posts (sorry about that btw), you’d most likely know that my uncle, who lives here but is currently at work, had a stomach...

Thanks for the answer. As expected, I didn’t get sick lol. But my stomach definitely has been acting up for the past few days, in the sense that I’d get a LOT of random gurgling and burping...

Just had breakfast. Two chorizo & egg tacos, I wanted another one and my mom told me just to get one off her plate & she’ll make herself another one. Well when I saw her plate, I noticed she had...

Unfortunately, I’m in the United States. I don’t believe they sell products such as those.


Aaaaaand I know. I’ve reached a high of anxiety that I haven’t seen since early 2011. Ever since I ate...

I want to ensure that my laptop is disinfected. As of now, I can’t find any norovirus killing wipes at any local stores. However, I do have Lysol Brand III Spray. Do you think spraying that on a damp...

I’m going to try to be calm as I type this.

So I have a dell laptop with windows 8.1, which is a somewhat old version of windows now. The reason why I still have it is because I haven’t used this...

Yeah, I’m completely aware of the guy’s lack of knowledge. What came to mind as I read his comment was “The Stomach Bug is a virus, moron. And you don’t drink to flush it out, you’re supposed to...

I’m scared that I’m getting the flu. It started when I was taking a shower less than an hour ago. I started getting a sore throat, however, that only lasted a few minutes & turned to a partially...

I recently moved to the Northside of my Hometown after 11 years of living in a city considered to be on the “outskirts” of it, about 15 minutes away from the Southside, where I was born in and 40-45...

I guess you’re right! It’s the 22nd, nearly 3 days later, and I’m still alright! Haha, thank you very much for your informative answer! Really helped calm me down.

I understand where you’re coming from. She told me to find someone who would take me in. The only thing is there isn’t anyone who I know would. I think she could’ve said it out of frustration as she...

Hi, I’m a 17 year old boy suffering from emetophobia. Now I know that I’m a frequent poster and acknowledge that my posts may be overwhelming or annoying, so I apoglize for that once again. Now, this...

Now, I recently had learned that my cousin, who I live with, is sick. This is the situation.

Maybe about one or two days ago, my aunt was talking to my mom about my cousin and how she’s doing in...

I’m constantly asking these types of questions, my sincerest apologies. The fact that it isn’t truly known just how long norovirus can actually survive outside of a host strikes a whole lot of fear...

I had gotten my first job on Friday and I started Saturday. This job happens to be at Taco Bell. Now, I can’t exacty complain, as the minimum pay is 9.00 an hour, and I’m personally being started off...
