- Pxtl 12y agoStomach flu isn't flu. Stomach flu is a misnomer, referring to gastroenteritis, a symptom of a stomach bug - generally a virus, but not influenza (the flu). It's relevant because the infectious mechanism of stomach bugs is similar to Ebola - the disease spreads by people interacting with sufferers' copious vomit and diarrhea.
