By Marler Clark LLP

 Next month,  there may be as many as four to five million people going to the Inaugural of the 44th President of the United States.   Many of those millions will pass through or stay in Montgomery County, Maryland, which is immediately adjacent to the District of Columbia, the federal city.

And guess what?  There is nice norovirus outbreak cooking away there now!

According to the Denver Examiner online news service:  

"A county health department spokeswoman, said Tuesday that outbreaks have been reported at two nursing homes and a business luncheon. She says that a group of county residents also became ill after attending a Florida wedding  where they likely were infected.

The virus has affected about 75 people since mid-November."
