This review provides a comprehensive overview of the epidemiology, transmission, clinical features, and control measures related to norovirus infections, emphasizing the public health challenges it presents. The most prevalent cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide, norovirus is highly contagious and causes millions of cases each year. Its resistance to typical disinfectant substances, environmental stability, and rapid rate of propagation makes it difficult to control, contributing to large-scale outbreaks, especially in enclosed spaces like medical facilities, retirement communities, educational institutions, and cruise ships. Usually, a norovirus infection causes diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal discomfort, with symptoms lasting 1 to 3 days. Although most cases resolve without the need for medical intervention, the virus poses a severe risk to vulnerable groups. Since there is NOT a specific antiviral medication for norovirus at this time, supportive care and hydration are the mainstays of management. Preventive measures primarily include good hygiene, proper food handling, and disinfection, as norovirus remains resistant to many common disinfectants. While vaccines are still under development, public health strategies to contain outbreaks remain critical. This review explores the epidemiology, transmission mechanisms, clinical features, and control strategies for norovirus, emphasizing the need for ongoing research to develop effective preventive tools. The “stomach flu,” or norovirus, is a highly contagious virus that causes gastroenteritis. The symptoms might last for one to three days and usually start 12 to 48 hours after exposure. Symptoms such headache, muscle soreness, exhaustion, low-grade fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and dehydration (laughing, dry mouth, and reduced urine flow).
