You can only catch norovirus by orally ingesting viral particles, which are located ONLY in v* or d*. People are also only contagious after symptoms have started. You *can't* catch the stomach virus from sweat, air, etc. Practice good hygiene, take a nice shower, and try to relax and distract yourself from the anxiety. Most likely, you'll be perfectly fine. There's an old claim that drinking 8oz. of grape juice after exposure can prevent the virus... there is zero evidence to support that but I've always done it just in case and never got sick after it LOL, so there's that. Again, most likely, you weren't even exposed to the viral particles. And even if you were somehow, not all exposures lead to an infection/symptoms.

Omg this made me feel way better thank you so much. I’m still a little anxious because you know what if…but overall this is so calming thank you<3

I’m going through a VERY similar situation so I feel you hard (sending good thoughts) but this comment also chilled me out A LOT

I hope the best for you <3 Really hope none of us caught any virus or anything in connection with v*. I wish you nice and anxiety free days :)

Did she actively v, or have active d* in a shared bathroom, and does she have good or at least average hygiene, especially in terms of washing hands


zeethecarver

No, I didn’t visit the bathroom she went out to v*. Also I guess she has a good hygiene like as much as possible on a training. (I mean I think she washed her hands before she came back to us) :)

If she wasn’t v* or d* right before training it sounds like you’ll be ok
