Another possible case of the Norwalk Virus has hit Swift Current.

Dr. Khami Chokani, Chief Medical Health Officer for the Heath Region says 11 patients have shown symptoms, but they are not certain at this time of the number of staff effected.  

Monday afternoon, the Cypress Health Region placed visitation restrictions on the Cypress Regional Hospital.

Dr. Chokani says there are only a few exceptions to the restrictions.

The Health Authority will allow only one parent at any time, and only the spouse or significant other will be allowed into the maternity ward. 

Chokani adds if you are experiencing flu like symptoms, call your family physcian or the healthline at 1-877-800-0002
