Outbreak
Eagan, 55123 Minnesota, United States
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has received more than 60 reports of illness after swimming at Schulze Lake at Dakota County’s Lebanon Hills Regional Park in the last three days. Health officials are still determining the exact pathogen causing the illnesses, but the symptoms and incubation period are consistent with norovirus infection.According to Trisha Robinson, waterborne disease supervisor, these types of germs can spread quickly and widely if people who are or have recently been ill swim in the same water with others. It’s critical that people stay out of any water until at least 72 hours after symptoms go away so we can stop the spread of the virus.
The beach at Schulze Lake was closed over the weekend and remained closed Monday. The MDH is asking people to stay home and not visit other beaches if they are experiencing illness that involves vomiting or diarrhea.
Norovirus is very contagious and is easily transmitted from person to person most through the oral/fecal route. Considering that hand sanitizer does NOT work against this virus, it is important to wash your hands with soap frequently. Use bleach to clean and disinfect surfaces.
In case you experience vomiting, diarrhea, and nausea, report it now. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
