Stomach flu is a contagious disease and gets infected by being in close touch with infected people. The air borne particles that are ejected out during coughing and sneezing from infected patients can easily spread this disease. Proper isolation till symptoms disappear is very critical to prevent transmission.Its possible that you can catch stomach flu more than twice specially a stomach virus called gastroenteritis. There are different strains of virus that circulate through the population because the virus mutates.
Is the stomach flu the same as food poisoning? I know I’ve had a couple instances in my life when I fell very ill after eating bad food. It’s usually a 24-hour spell with vomiting and diarrhea. Is this the stomach flu or food poisoning?
