Because of the norovirus at a mid-Michigan nursing home, it's going to be a long Christmas weekend
December 23, 2006
Grey is the color of the day here in Michigan in a more ways than one.
Consider the nursing home on the outskirts of Lansing where a sizable chunk of the residents got the norovirus, essentially a volatile and highly contagious form of the stomach flu.
Nursing home residents have to tough it out alone over Christmas without visitors from the outside bringing company and gifts.
This follows outbreaks at a local restaurant and another senior citizen assisted living center. Pray for these vulnerable people who will be alone over the Christmas weekend.
