When was your last checkup? It is far better to get screened and checked before a health condition develops or “shows up”. Many people say that they are healthy and fine and don’t need healthcare checkups. These exams are not just to manage what’s going wrong but to also keep other things going right. It is to catch things when they begin to happen or change and not after it is out of control. You cannot fix what you do not know is there. Take a moment to take care of yourself and get checked.

A stomach virus is highly contagious. The virus can live on surfaced for weeks and sometimes longer. It can take 24-72 hours to get sick after you have swallowed the virus but can take a full week. A person is contagious for at least 3 days after symptoms have stopped. Your symptoms may include vomiting and diarrhea. This is a viral gastroenteritis and is not related to the flu. The flu shot and other vaccines do not protect against stomach viruses. If infected, you can spread this virus to other people and you should avoid going visiting the home of a sick person for at least two weeks because the virus can live on surfaces without proper cleaning. Call today if you have any symptoms.
