‘Students are getting a little bit nervous just about what’s going on’: CSA president
Jan 13, 2025
There are now 234 cases of students with the stomach flu at the University of Guelph in southern Ontario, and at least one of those is a lab-confirmed case of norovirus.
Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health confirmed the number of cases Monday afternoon. The regional health unit said unless there was a significant increase, it would no longer be reporting case numbers.
The school said on Wednesday that some students living in residence started to report symptoms a week earlier. By mid-week, at least 60 cases were reported to public health. By Friday, that had more than tripled to 190.
The university has said the majority of the cases are in South Residence, but they’ve also been reported in other residences.
The university said it’s working with public health to address the outbreak. Some of the actions they’re taking include ensuring custodial staff are frequently cleaning commonly touched surfaces, like doorknobs and washrooms, with substances meant to kill norovirus.
