A Reno, Nevada daycare, Noah's Ark, is the location of a Norovirus outbreak. A week ago, 30 norovirus cases were confirmed. After 2 additional people became infected after the daycare had been cleaned and sanitized, the daycare closed. It is scheduled to open today.

Norovirus is highly contagious and can survive outside of the body for an extended period of time. Doorknobs, toys, any surface that may have been touched by an infected person, all can have enough of the virus on them to make another person sick.
