Hello there!
The Norwalk virus, currently known as the Norovirus or the winter vomiting disease, is the virus that can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, and stomach aches.
It was named the Norwalk virus earlier because the first incident actually happened with a bunch of elementary school kids suffering from this virus and it happened in Norwalk, Ohio, in the United States. But people over there threw a fit over it because viruses are usually named after the places are normally found for easy remembering so it had it's changed by a bunch of virologists.
Hope this helped! 😃
The ICD-9-CM code for gastroenteritis due to the Norwalk virus is 008.63. This code will become A08.11 with the new ICD-10-CM codes.

The incubation period for norovirus, often referred to as the "Norwalk virus," typically ranges from 24 to 48 hours after exposure to the virus. During this time, individuals may not exhibit any symptoms but can still become contagious. Symptoms usually include vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps, which can last for 1 to 3 days. It's important to practice good hygiene to prevent its spread, especially in communal settings.
