Norovirus continues to make the rounds at the Georges L. Dumont Hospital in Moncton.

The ban applies to general visitors and designated support persons but exceptions will be made for palliative care patients.

A norovirus outbreak had already been reported in 3F, the rehabilitation and geriatric unit, on Saturday.
