It's issued advice for those experiencing symptoms
Public Health Isle of Man is warning that diarrhoea and vomiting (D&V) is circulating here.
It's said to often be caused by a stomach bug and should stop in a few days.
If you're experiencing symptoms though, Public Health says you should stay at home and remember the 48 hour rule.
It's advising sufferers to keep hydrated and wash your hands thoroughly.
You should seek urgent medical attention if:
- you're worried about a baby under 12 months
- your child stops breast or bottle feeding while they're ill
- a child under 5 years has signs of dehydration, such as fewer wet nappies
- you or your child (over 5 years) still have signs of dehydration after using oral rehydration sachets
- you or your child keep being sick and cannot keep fluid down
- you or your child have bloody diarrhoea or bleeding from the bottom
- you or your child have diarrhoea for more than 7 days or vomiting for more than 2 days
