If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product, contact your healthcare providerCheck to see if you have recalled productsDo not consume, serve, use, sell, or distribute recalled productsRecalled products should be thrown out or returned to the location where they were purchasedPeople with norovirus illness usually develop symptoms of gastroenteritis within 24 to 48 hours, but symptoms can start as early as 12 hours after exposure. The illness often begins suddenly. Even after having the illness, you can still become re-infected by norovirus. The main symptoms of norovirus illness are diarrhea, vomiting (children usually experience more vomiting than adults), nausea and stomach cramps. Other symptoms may include low-grade fever, headache, chills, muscle aches and fatigue (a general sense of tiredness). Most people feel better within one or two days, with symptoms resolving on their own, and experience no long-term health effects. As with any illness causing diarrhea or vomiting, people who are ill should drink plenty of liquids to replace lost body fluids and prevent dehydration. In severe cases, patients may need to be hospitalized and given fluids intravenously.Learn more about the health risksSign up for recall notifications by email and follow us on social mediaView our detailed explanation of the food safety investigation and recall processReport a food safety or labelling concern
