Stomach Flu Buggie!?

I can't get any answers in health. So there was this kid who goes to my school who was out for a week with some kind of flu ( stomach?) and he came back to school today but he threw up and didn't go home because nobody could pick him up. So he just came back to class. I have two classes with him! And he walked by me a few times and I stood sort of near him when I was blowing my nose and he was signing out to use the restroom. Ugh! I am a total germaphobe and am TERRIFIED of catching this bug since I don't want to go to Mid Winter Break sick! Please help! If I got it, wouldn't symptoms occur from like 1-3 days since that's the incubation period of gastrititis? Thanks for your answers.
Sincerely,
A girl scared of germs

Wash your hands often, take your vitamins, get enough sleep. I take airborne when I think I may be coming down with something. Then I feel much better. It knocks whatever is in your system out. It will help support your immune system. Good luck.

wow! i'm happy to know someone else hates puking as much as me. drink lots of water. use lysol. wash your hands. use germ-x. try not to touch doorknobs, railings etc. don't hug alot of people or shake hands! try not to use the public restrooms to often! thats what i do!!! i feel your pain!

Gargle in some Listerine.
Drink hot tea, but not too late so it does not keep you awake.
another thing..
dont let the germaphobic thing take over your life...rise above it and learn to rule over it...not let it rule you.
