 Some hotels are issuing leaflets on how to deal with the virus |
Tourists visiting some hotels in Jersey are being warned about possible cases of a Norwalk-type virus. About 10 hotels in the island have reported a number of cases of the stomach illness.
People with the virus are often sick and nauseous and have stomach cramps and diarrhoea.
It is rare for people to become seriously ill, but the bug is very contagious and people normally take up to three days to recover.
Mike Tait from Jersey Tourism says people are being warned before they come to Jersey, but he says most have not been put off coming to the island
Some hotels are giving out leaflets with advice on how to deal with the illness, and anyone with the symptoms is being asked to contract their hotel management.
