  • Nororvirus You can get it by: Eating food or drinking liquids that are contaminated with norovirus. Touching surfaces or objects with norovirus on them and then putting your hand or fingers in your mouth.
  • Rotavirus The virus can be easily spread by: contaminated hands and objects, such as toys. Children can spread rotavirus both before and after they become sick with diarrhea. 
  • Listeria Listeria is found in soil and water. Vegetables can become contaminated from the soil or from manure used as fertilizer. Animals can carry the bacterium without appearing ill and can contaminate foods such as meats and dairy products.
  • Hepatitis People usually get hepatitis A by having close contact with a person who is infected, from food or drinks prepared by someone who is infected, or by eating shellfish harvested from sewage-contaminated water. 
  • Amebiasis This contamination is common when human waste is used as fertilizer. It can also be spread from person to person, particularly by contact with the mouth or rectal area of an infected person.
