A bug is doing the rounds across one part of Merseyside, with hospital bosses warning people to avoid A&E if they have symptoms.
A number of people in Southport and Ormskirk have reported having headaches, vomiting and nausea. Social media has seen a number of people sharing their misery with dozens of people reporting having symptoms today alone.
One woman from Southport said: "I've had the runs and vomiting every half hour since last night, fever, joint aches, headache". Another said: "Last week yes!! For two days was awful".
