Hi, I've been reading more and more about norovirus spreading, and my BIG major phobia is called emetophobia which is a fear of vomit. As you can imagine this time every year my anxiety kicks due to this (however the last few weeks it's been because of other things). I'm going to a party tonight then out for lunch tomorrow and I'm now getting "the fear" incase someone has it or someone who handles my food has it!! I haven't vomited since I was 4 years old, (touch wood) and I always do everything possible to avoid it but it just annoys me so much when people who are ill still go out and spread their germs and I'm worried that it'll happen to me. I'm in Scotland and I haven't heard about any major outbreaks up here yet but I still worry....
