Kernaussagen
  • Die Norovirus-Infektion ist die häufigste Ursache einer Gastroenteritis.

  • Die Erkrankung ist hochkontagiös, daher sind frühes Erkennen und die Einleitung rigoroser Hygienemaßnahmen entscheidend, um eine nosokomiale Ausbreitung dieser Infektion in Krankenhäusern und Pflegeeinrichtungen zu vermeiden.

  • Ausbrüche dieser Erkrankung besonders in Akutkrankenhäusern können erhebliche Kosten verursachen.
