Syracuse, New York (WSYR-TV) - There's a stomach bug going around the Syracuse area - University Hospital has seen a number of adults in the ER with the bug. They're also seeing both adults and children with fevers and no other symptoms.

Dr. Wolfe's office in Syracuse is also treating adults with the stomach bug. 

It's going around in children at Brighton Pediatrics.  They've also had a few kids with chicken pox this week.

In Camillus, Dr. Rovall is seeing children with a fever and sore throat, also the coxsackie virus is going around with blisters on the hands and in the mouth.

At Syracuse Pediatrics, Dr. Freshman says it's been pretty quiet this week.  He's treating some sore throats, but they're not strep.

In Cicero, they're treating children with sinusitis at Wee Care Pediatrics.  There's also lots of swimmer's ear and rashes.

And at North Medical Urgent Care, sinus infections are all they're seeing this week.
