    Default How long are people contagious?

    Generally how long are people with noro contagious? Also, how long can noro live on surfaces? I've been with my friend who had it about a week and a half ago all day and was in her car so I kinda feel nervous about it. I haven't really touched my face as far as I can remember

    The general consensus seems to be that people are the most contagious for 72 hours after symptoms stop. I think you are good
    I wanna feel the change consume me,
    Feel the outside turning in.
    I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
    Cleansing I've endured within
    My shadow

    72 hours for surfaces but the virus sheds for two weeks in the stool. Which is why it's such to contain in hospital outbreaks!

    Friends know where to reach me.
    So long, and thanks for all the fish.
