POMPANO BEACH - A flu being blamed on the norovirus has felled at least 80 people in Broward County this week, following a recent outbreak in Palm Beach County.
A Pompano Beach retirement community and two Hollywood homeless shelters are reporting scores of people complaining of stomach and intestinal distress, attacks that can last for up to 48 hours.
At the 64-acre John Knox Village on Southwest Sixth Street in Pompano, about 20 residents and less than a dozen staffers were stricken this week.
