Huron Expositor, 2014-11-26, Page 9Paul McGrath, for the Expositor 2014 Dusters Ball As Movember is coming to a close and that means another Dusters Ball. The event, which celebrated its third year, showcased a wealth of `staches, both young and old. Those in attendance partied the night away at the Seaforth Community Centre, with all proceeds going toward prostate cancer and mental health research. Illnesses increasing according to local health unit Residents encouraged to stay home sick The Huron County Health Unit is see- ing an increase in stomach -related ill- ness across the county. Residents can stop the spread of infection by staying home when sick. Public Health Inspector Roxana Nas- siri says the recent illness is likely caused by Norovirus. Noroviruses cause sudden onset of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Symp- toms can also include low-grade fever, chills, headache, tiredness and muscle aches. Illness lasts 24 to 48 hours. Norovirus spreads easily, usually through person-to-person contact. The virus enters a person's mouth through contaminated food, water or hands. Hands can become contaminated by close personal contact, sharing objects or touching the same surfaces as some- one who has the virus. "You can avoid spreading Norovirus by staying home when sick," says Nas- siri. "If your children are sick, keep them home from daycare until they have been symptom-free for 48 hours." Healthcare workers, food handlers and caregivers, including daycare staff, should not return to work until 48 hours after symptoms have resolved. Nassiri adds that if you feel ill, you should not visit elderly residents in long-term care facilities. You can also stop the spread of infec- tion by cleaning and disinfecting com- monly touched surfaces such as coun- ters, doorknobs and remote controls. Frequent hand washing with warm running water and soap for at least 20 seconds is also important. Hands should be cleaned after using the wash- room, after changing diapers, after shaking hands and before preparing and eating food. You can be reinfected with Norovi- rus even after you have recovered. There is no specific treatment, but it is important to get plenty of fluids to pre- vent dehydration.
