S, stuff like that. Victoria now we know the cause. The Health Department says its the highly contagious norovirus, not e. Coli as once feared. Chipotle has been at the center of a national e. Coli outbreak, but this is different. The Health Department says someone who was sick came to work. I am upset that any establishment would allow somebody to be in the facility who was sick and did not follow protocol. Victoria the Health Department cited the restaurant for that and also for serving food that wasnt hot enough. Norovirus is spread from person to person and from contaminated surfaces. Outside the closed restaurant, a containing everything from mops to shelves. Most of the people who got sick are boston College Students. I think everyone knows at least a few people who have been sick. Victoria b. C.

Who knows what tomorrow will be, right . Victoria and the restaurant remains closed. They are cooperating with the Health Department, and so far the restaurant has been issued three citations.
