STOCKDALE, Pa. (AP) - October 23, 2008
Investigators from the state health and agriculture departments
blamed the illnesses on the norovirus, a common illness that causes
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Investigators say they found black residue and pink slime in the
ice machine at the the Stockdale Volunteer Fire Company in
Washington County where the reception was held Oct. 11. They say
the bartender at the event was also ill at the time. The ice
machine has been sanitized.
The fire company has not returned a call for comment.
