'Be vigilant' over vomiting bug
The winter vomiting bug could spread rapidly across England unless people are sensible and stay at home when they have the virus, a leading GP warns.

Many hospitals have already been forced to close wards to try to control outbreaks of norovirus.

Experts say norovirus is on the up but this is not unusual for the season, despite media reports of a crisis.

People should stay off work for 48 hours after the symptoms go, says The Royal College of GPs' chairman.
