How long does it take for a puke virus to incubate?
well, it depends on the virus itself. If you understand how
viruses replicate themselves then you can understand how long they
will take to make you sick. Typically things that make you sick to
your stomach are bacteria that you may ingest from eating food,
drinking water, etc. Bacteria can multiply about very 20 minutes.
If you ingest say one bacteria cell, the number of cells will
double exponentially every 20 minutes. So say after 8 hours you
could have 1000000000000000000000000 bacteria cells in your
stomach. At this point your body may start responding and you start
puking or other bodily changes start to take place to get rid of
the bacteria. these bodily changes can make you sick.
If it is a virus that you are infected with then it could take
hours to years to make you sick. Virus replicate themselves in your
body differently than bacteria do, so they could lay dormant for a
long time and not replicate for years, or replicate very quickly
and make you sick within a matter of hours.
If you are really sick to your stomach, chances are it is
probably a bacterial infection and you could go to your doctor and
have them check your stool as you may have a bacteria infection
that goes dormant for a while, and could make you sick every couple
of weeks.
