Health staff are dealing with an outbreak of what appears to be viral gastroenteritis among some of the evacuees from the Fort McMurray fire. Officials say about 40 to 50 reported symptoms of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea over the weekend at the Edmonton evacuation centre. Rob Brekke (BREK'-ee), the City of Edmonton co-ordinator for the emergency services, says preventative measures helped reduce the number of people falling ill between yesterday and today. (Upwards of 15-thousand people have come through the evacuation centre, but only about 600 remain in so-called group lodging. The facility is also serving between five-thousand and six-thousand meals a day to those using the food service.)
