I presume it is Norwalk virus, similar to what is causing the problem in the Cruise ships.

There is an outbreak of something in East Texas, but don't know if they have the cause yet.

We've been seeing three or four cases a week here. I couldn't find reports on the Texas Public health web site, but I expect a report on the MMR in the near future. Right now, they are more worried about West nile virus and influenza.

Anymore news about this outbreak in Texas?

I've heard from a niece in San Anton that her teenager was sick with 104* temp; next day it was down to 99*. Maybe just a nasty flu that causes high temps?
