CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - Feeling ill? There?s a good chance that norovirus ? a food-borne stomach illness ? is the root cause.
Linn County was identified Tuesday as one of five counties where the Iowa Department of Public Health has been investigating eight probable norovirus outbreaks. Others are Polk, Scott, Kossuth and Black Hawk counties.
Cases also have been reported elsewhere in Iowa, said Ann Garvey, deputy state epidemiologist. ?We really are hearing anecdotally that there?s statewide activity,? she said.
