Food poisoning or stomach flu, how to tell?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually in...: Retrospect. Food poisoning will affect multiple people, but only those who ate the same food. Gastroenteritis will hit multiple people, going from one to the other. Food poisoning is usually not passed from person-to-person.
