The added heat probably raises your temp and irritates your body making it think that the virus is getting the better of it so it decides to activate the vomiting thingie to get rid of the virus!.
Well look at it this way - at least you are getting rid of the virus!.

I would assume so!.
Hotter water can increase your temperature, making your body think your getting sicker!.
Also if the virus is bacteria related, heat will increase the rate of growth of bacteria!.
Just a guess though!.
I would guess that the hot water just increases your temperature a little too much!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well I'm not sure, but when I have a virus, I usually have a fever along with it!. Because your body is already hot, then the extra heat from the shower could make your body over heat and get sick!. Just a theory!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
