Prevention of norovirus infection involves several key strategies:
Hand hygiene: Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water, especially after using the bathroom, changing diapers, and before preparing or eating food. Food safety: Ensure that food is cooked properly and avoid eating raw or undercooked shellfish. Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before consumption. Surface disinfection: Clean and disinfect contaminated surfaces immediately using a bleach-based cleaner. Isolation: Infected individuals should stay home and avoid contact with others until at least 48 hours after symptoms have resolved.
