SWIRLING rumours of a potential gastro outbreak across Ipswich have left many parents on edge following the recent temporary closure of Orion Lagoon. Ipswich City Council was quick to shut down the rumours this week, pointing out that scheduled maintenance at the popular lagoon was completed ahead of schedule, and was not related to any emergent health concerns. Concerned parents have since taken to social media in search of answers, with some reportedly suspecting the momentary shutdown was due to mandatory deep cleaning. However, frustrated lagoon users still claimed their children have fallen ill after recently visiting the facility - a rash and gastro-like symptoms appearing only hours later.
