Norovirus Sickens More than 100 at 2018 Winter Olympic Games
As the 2018 Winter Olympics begin in South Korea, the country’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has confirmed 128 cases of norovirus--up from just 32 cases a few days ago.
At least 1,200 of those affected with even one symptom of the illness--which happen to be Olympic security personnel temporarily residing at a Pyeongchang youth training center--have been quarantined. In their place are 900 military officers to help keep the events safe.
