Six Flags Great Escape Lodge Can't Escape Norovirus
Found on efoodalert.com :
According to a recent announcement by the New York State Health Department, the state is investigating over 200 cases of gastrointestinal illness caused by the Norovirus among people who stayed at the Six Flags Great Escape Lodge and Indoor Waterpark in Queensbury during March 7 – 19th, 2008. That number has grown to over 400 cases as of March 26th, 2008. From the efoodalert article:
The outbreak, which is now confirmed to have been caused by Norovirus, began earlier this month, and peaked on the weekend of March 15th. The state is maintaining a full time presence at the facility to ensure that all cleaning and disinfection measures are being carried out properly and that the resort is in full compliance with state health regulations.
