Just when Chipotle thought it&nbsp;was coming back from its food-poisoning scandal, the brand is dealing with another outbreak. According to a <a href="https://www.fastcasual.com/news/chipotle-stock-plummets-on-news-of-virginia-norovirus-outbreak/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=fast-casual-chipotle-stock-plummets-on-news-of-virginia-norovirus-outbreak-2703368" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">recent Fast Casual article</a>, the company has confirmed that multiple customers are experiencing symptoms of norovirus&nbsp;at a Sterling, Virginia store and this news has already affected the company&rsquo;s share price on the New York Stock Exchange. The stock&nbsp;decreased by close to 7 percent on Tuesday.

&ldquo;We are working with health authorities to understand what the cause may be and to resolve the situation as quickly as possible. The reported symptoms are consistent with norovirus,&rdquo; said Chipotle Executive Director of Food Safety, Jim Marsden.

He also went on to mention that norovirus does not come from a company&rsquo;s food supply. Though the virus can be spread through food if a restaurant employee does not conduct proper sanitation procedures and then handles food for customers.
