Swimmers stricken with suspect norovirus; 100 sick at meet

About 100 people are reporting symptoms of norovirus after attending the Maryland State Swimming Championships at the Naval Academy on Saturday, March 5. Even family of the athletes got sick.

First the swimmers became ill then several volunteer coaches and spectators got sick. The Anne Arundel County Health Department inspected the area, but found no source of contamination. The pool itself is an unlikely source.
