There are always flu's / stomach bugs / colds / std's roaming around. Just be careful, ebola has the same starting symptoms as the flu, mwahaha!

Stomach flu is not really the flu, and not contagious. If you're getting this frequently, you could be eating some bad or contaminated food.

Please keep your spit to yourself, mosh.

How long did it last, and what were your symptoms?

It lasted about a day and the only symptom was diarrhea.
Sorry, no pics.

Yeah, two people where I work have strep throat. Hasn't stopped me from swapping bodily fluids with my wife though. ;)

I jumped up and down for 30 minutes straight, of course we're safe!

There is a site Who is Sick where you can find out what is going around by you.

It is interesting, maybe worth checking out, but that's about it.

Probably food poisoning rather than an infection.

influenza AKA "the flu" is not a stomach virus, and rarely does it cause vomiting or naseua. It is a disease of the lower respiratory system.
