[Norovirus outbreaks in a teaching hospital: the role of infection control].

In January 2004, 20 patients and 19 staff in one ward became ill in an outbreak of norovirus-related gastroenteritis over a 12-day period. The epidemic curve indicated person-to-person transmission. Infection control measures were instituted in consultation with the government health authorities. A prompt rigorous response may have prevented spread to other wards. In March 2004, 54 staff and 1 member of a patient's family became ill in an outbreak of gastroenteritis. The source of norovirus contamination was associated with food served at the hospital restaurant. Secondary infection was prevented because the outbreak was recognized early and staff members with gastroenteritis symptoms were asked to stay home. Immediate control measures, such as identification and announcement of the outbreak, isolation of symptomatic individuals from others, personal protection, helped control the infection.
