Twenty-eight students in a residence hall at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis have been infected with suspected norovirus, according to the Star Tribune.
The outbreak has prompted university officials to disinfect two dining facilities and four dormitories in hopes of preventing further infections.
State investigators are interviewing the sick students about what and where they've been eating to determine the source of the infection.
This recent group of infections adds to a string of university norovirus outbreaks since February, including hundreds of cases at Miami University of Ohio in Oxford, the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and Ursinus College in Collegeville, Pa. Most recently, 50 to 60 students at Oregon State University in Corvallis were reported ill with suspected norovirus.
