Closing a school for issues concerning the weather are common, but what one high school in Illinois is facing it an outbreak of the “stomach virus”. There is still doing testing to find out if its an outbreak of the norovirus virus. The norovirus can last one to three days. The problem came to be when 10 of the 14 members of the basketball team fell ill. On Monday 800 of its 2,400 reported absent. St. Charles East High School plans to reopen on Thursday after a good cleaning of all the surfaces in the building.
