At the moment, the #2 search on Google Trends is for "brechdurchfall", which is the German word for "gastroenteritis", as best I can figure. I've found a few articles about norovirus and rotavirus incidents (e.g. this one, in German and about a sports school in Austria if I've read it correctly, and this one, also in German, about unexpectedly sick patients in a hospital).
We already know that Google Trends can predict the flu. Is there some sort of outbreak of viral GI disease in German-speaking countries that I've not heard of?

It's from Fark. Yesterday (12/10), Fark posted a link to a story about a bunch of people getting norovirus on a rhine cruise. Then they suggested that you "ask Google" what Brechdurchfall is.
