If you haven’t had the flu or cold yet keep washing your hands because the Norovirus is circulating as well.

That one comes with vomiting and diarrhea.

Dr. Judy MacDonald with Alberta Health Services says if you find your self sick, drink and sleep it off. As well, if you haven’t yet get the flu shot.

She adds, compared to last year, there are not as many influenza cases reported, and that may be because of the warm weather. That virus thrives in cold weather.
