Camden County Health Officials Advise Caution Amid Norovirus Increase

(Blackwood, NJ) – As Norovirus cases rise across the nation, the Camden County Department of Health and Human Services is urging residents to implement preventive measures to curb the spread of this highly contagious virus. Norovirus is known for causing gastrointestinal illness, leading to symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.

Health officials emphasize the importance of practicing good hygiene to minimize the risk of infection. Regular handwashing with soap and warm water, especially after using the restroom and before preparing or consuming food, is crucial. Additionally, residents are advised to disinfect surfaces that may be contaminated and to avoid close contact with individuals who are exhibiting symptoms of the virus.

In light of the rising cases, the department is also recommending that anyone experiencing symptoms stay home and avoid public places to prevent further transmission. By taking these precautions, Camden County residents can help protect themselves and others from the Norovirus outbreak.
