Norovirus, 3D Model

3D graphical representation of a number of Norovirus virions set against a black background. Noroviruses belong to the genus Norovirus, and the family Caliciviridae. They are a group of related, single-stranded RNA, nonenveloped viruses that cause acute gastroenteritis in humans. Norovirus is the official genus name for the group of viruses provisionally described as, Norwalk-like viruses (NLV). Norovirus is a very contagious virus that can infect anyone. You can get it from an infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces. The virus causes your stomach or intestines or both to get inflamed. This leads you to have stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhoea, and to throw up. These symptoms can be serious for some people, especially young children and older adults.
