The Mongoose 1,007 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 What the Fuck did they expect?………I would be sick wakening up and seeing that Shithole every morning as well !! A sickness and vomiting bug has hit the Commonwealth Games Athletes' Village just days before the event kicks off.Ten cases of Games staff falling ill were reported on Wednesday morning but just a few hours later at around 12.30pm, a total of 12 cases had been confirmed.All those infected were working at the specially constructed residential area in Glasgow's Dalmarnock area, where athletes are beginning to arrive.Organisers have confirmed that a "small number" of employees in the workforce suffered symptoms including vomiting and diarrhoea.Bosses have now launched an investigation into the norovirus bug over fears it could spread when the athletes from across the Commonwealth arrive.NHS officials said all 12 staff have been sent home and told to remain there until they have been clear of symptoms for 48 hours.The Public Health Protection Unit of NHSGGC was notified of the cases on Tuesday and all appropriate infection control measures were put in place.A spokesman for Glasgow 2014 said: "There have been 12 reports from workforce of D&V (diarrhoea and vomiting) which we are investigating."Village residents and workforce have been informed and issued with health information. There have been no reports from athletes or team officials and the Village is open and operating as normal."We have been made aware of a small number of diarrhoea and vomiting cases being reported from workforce in the village, which we are investigating."Athletes are due to start arriving at the village this week, before events begin on July 23, and Games bosses have now issued an advisory message in relation to the bug.It reads: "Any village resident with any signs or symptoms of diarrhoea and vomiting should stay in their rooms and contact the polyclinic for assistance by telephone or through their team management."Workforce should notify their manager and avoid coming into work. If symptoms appear while on shift, workforce should contact their supervisor. Please remind your teams about adopting good practice in the use of regular hand-washing and sanitiser."Dr Gillian Penrice, consultant in Public Health Medicine for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, said: "Norovirus is the most common stomach bug in the UK and it is common to see the virus in the community. It's usually mild and generally lasts for 24 hours."The symptoms being experienced by these individuals are mild and none of the 12 are giving any cause for concern as a result of the virus. We are continuing to monitor the situation closely."Glasgow 2014 chief executive David Grevemberg said: "It's a very isolated group of people, a couple of people in our workforce, and business is operating according to normal," he said."In any health and safety situation we always take it very, very seriously but it's an isolated incident, the residents at the village have not been affected and have been well briefed but we'll continue to monitor the situation."We work very closely with all the medical authorities, we have a great team there that's aware of the situation and gathering and disseminating information."As with any global village of this sort we are reminding people to be diligent in terms of their hygiene and cleanliness."

At the time I thought it was because I was having to look at the giro dome everyday, might be more to it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
