I Frank Spring knew this was not going to be a good morning as he looked out into the packed ER waiting room. Scattered among the usual collection of cuts, broken bones, and respiratory problems were over a dozen people clustered around the restrooms. Several others held young children. Sam looked up from the pile of charts. Those folks have been drifting in over the last hour or so.
Symptoms are abdominal pain, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea.
Most of the adults are just a bit uncomfortable. The kids have it the worst. Two are in Peds. The other two are on dialysis already. Frank's eyebrows rose.
