A member asked:
How many days after noroviru symptoms, should my husband sleep in a separate bedroom/ use a separate bathroom? when can we be together (cuddle, kiss)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Take precautions: The Center for Disease Control's website suggests waiting at least 2 days after symptoms resolve before having contact with others (such as preparing or sharing food) where exposure and transmission can take place. That said, the virus can remain present in the stool (feces) for 2 weeks. Scrupulous hand washing is crucial to prevent this very contagious condition.
