There are cases of the unpleasant winter vomiting bug every year in the UK.
But experts fear there could be many more cases than usual this yea r, as people return to their pre-pandemic routines.
And several cases of the bug have been found in Yorkshire, leaving people with vomiting and diarrhoea for days.
Suzanna Walshaw, who believes she suffered with norovirus a couple of weeks ago, shared her unpleasant experience online.
She said: "Woke up nauseated then threw up lots of bile for 5 hours nearly non stop!! Luckily the bug only lasted 2 days!! But couldn't eat at all."
Suzanna said her mum who cared for her while she was ill also went on to catch the bug.
For Benjamin O'Neill, catching norovirus also felt horrible.
He said it was "a million times worse" than when he had Covid-19.
The six main symptoms of norovirus are vomiting, watery diarrhoea, feeling sick, aching arms and legs, a high temperature, and a headache.
Fortunately, the unpleasant symptoms usually go away in about two days, according to the NHS's website.
