<p>bigredmed: helpful post…thank you!
You mentioned probiotics. A friend suggested my son (who is recovering from Norovirus) go on probiotics. My s was on a long term course of antibiotics in December.
Some of the info I found on a quick internet search said probiotics might help prevent these nasty stomach viruses. Is this true? </p>
<p>Re the original topic: I read in the paper today that huge numbers of worried Penn kids are showing up for treatment at the health clinic. I guess they’re giving them antibiotics?</p>
