A member asked:
Hi. i have 3 girls who all seem to be rotating a stomach virus. its an average of 10 days between, up to 17 at most. each of them have had it multiple times since oct. ive resorted to bleaching surfaces, sanitizing laundry and dishes. what gives?

Time to see pediatrician for an exam and to test stool, it would be unusual for a virus to keep reinfecting them, a parasite, if having pets or community acquired c diff for example would be more likely. Hand hygiene remains the most important measures for them at this point to stop transmission.

My husband had the stomach virus recently. He is 72 hours symptom free. I have bleached the house twice now. When is a good time to go back to our normal? (being around each other, kissing, having contact?) is 72 hours enough time?
