Actually, no, it's not that easy to find examples. Yes, your single example came up in Google, but really, how many incidents of food poisoning by lemonade stands occur each year? Norovirus usually comes from contact with stool or vomit. I suppose that's possible if a kid is really dirty about their bathroom habits and so forth. I worry a lot more about the thousands of cases of illness caused by bad sanitation at restaurants around the country. Now there you'll find lots of examples. Hep C occasionally is spread by a restaurant worker; a dozen people may catch it before they track down the culprit.

> but really, how many incidents of food poisoning by lemonade stands occur each year? "They" would claim that's because the regulation is working, right? The reason it doesn't show up more is because food poisoning is very common, and so "person catches food poisoning" is not going to be reported anywhere that Google will index. > I suppose that's possible if a kid is really dirty about their bathroom habits and so forth. No, and this is an important point. Most people do not wash their hands properly, and norovirus is really easy to transmit. If anything it's amazing that norovirus isn't more common. (I agree with your points about actual restaurants btw.)
