Nearly 100 students were out sick at Babylon High School because of what's believed to be the highly contagious norovirus. LisaRoznerTV has the advice from doctors on how to avoid getting sick.
Health officials are still investigating what caused the suspected outbreak at the school. The county health commissioner says last Friday, more than 80 students called out sick with the gastrointestinal illness.
"It's a virus that lives in the gastrointestinal tract and usually causes nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, and these viruses are highly contagious," Zhang said."The mode of spread is through direct contact through contaminant water, food or surface." "We were really upset, and then when we got the runaround from the school -- oh, it's no big deal, it's not this, it's not that many kids. My grandson said he saw cars like constantly coming around picking up kids out of the nurse's room," Trujillo said.
