There was that 1 virus that spread from UNC to NCSU and other surrounding colleges. What was it exactly? I got it 1 year, but I forgot what people called it.

was it about 2 years ago?

there was a nasty norovirus thing going around on cruise ships during the time i went on that one cruise a couple years back where i got TOOK in jamaica.

i remember the employees cleaning all the handrails and shit all the time, and remember reading about it afterwards, how a whole ship got locked down and shit.

shit honestly i thought he meant a computer virus too...then i was like oh yeah norovirus

3/10/2008 9:13:40 PM

^^ it was 2 years ago, but also 3 and 4 years ago.

it started in 2002 - that's when I saw the first cases. It was yearly after that for a few years
