Re: Interesting (maybe even good?) Norovirus news
The real question is how many times will a person be infected by Norovirus over the next ten years - because we can safely assume given the amount and progress of vaccine development so far, that we will have at least something resembling a vaccine within the next ten years on the market.
Look at your own personal infection history, have you been infected by Norovirus in the last 10 years? If yes then how many times? And was that before or after you became an emet and stepped up your hygiene? So let's say you do get infected, once or twice during the next ten years - the chances of you getting infected after that are significantly lower. There's not too much longer to hang on in there - just think about it this way, imagine that you were a child growing up in the 60s when Norovirus first emerged - you'd have had to have waited nearly another 60 years before you got so much as a sniff of a vaccine. But you don't, you've only got to wait a maximum of 10 more years. Don't let things get blown out of perspective, and don't lose hope
