The Department of Health is warning New Brunswickers of the stomach flu that is making the rounds.
Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and stomach cramps.
It can also include a low-grade fever, headache, muscle aches, chills, and fatigue.
The symptoms appear roughly 24 to 48 hours after a person becomes infected with the virus.
Recovery time is usually within 48 hours.
Seniors, children, and people with weakened immune systems are at greater risk of developing a more serious illness.
