Norovirus, the highly contagious stomach bug that causes vomiting and diarrhea, is on the rise in the United States. Cases continue to climb across the country, especially in the Northeast. Although respiratory virus season is likely past its peak, the 2023-2024 norovirus season is well underway. Nationally, norovirus is circulating at the highest levels since last March, according to the latest data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The current surge in norovirus is not surprising, the experts note, but rather an expected increase that occurs every winter in the U.S. “It’s following pretty classic trends,” says Bisgrove. Last winter was a tough norovirus season for the U.S., as virus activity rebounded to pre-pandemic levels following the dropping of COVID-19 restrictions. Cases peaked in early March 2023, but norovirus activity still remained high well into the spring.
