You need to keep away from others for at least 48 hours after you last vomited or had diarrhoea.
This means:
Children must not go to childcare, crèche or school.
Health care workers, child care workers and food handlers must not attend work.
No one should swim or use a paddling pool
Disclaimer - every case is unique and the final decision will be made in consultation with the Doctor
