Dr Hilary warned pet owners as cases of norovirus are on the rise.
The health professional was back on ITV's Lorraine giving health advice to the public. Lorraine Kelly asked him: "Can I talk to you about norovirus? With having being subjected to it myself. They sent me home from work! That's never happened in my life.
"It's horrid, but it seems to be like everybody just about knows somebody who has been struck down by it."
