last time at school, i heard that three kids went home on the same day for throwing up.
like a week later,which was like 2 days before; my friends and i went on a limo ride to the mall, and to a club, and when they dropped me off, i felt really bad, and i threw up.
later the next day, when i came back from school, my brother threw up.
and now today right now, my dad is about to throw up.
what is going on ? how can i prevent this ? what can i do ? what is causing this ? help me !! it is almost Christmas, i want to be healthy, help me !

Sounds like your guys are sharing a bad stomach virus. Most last only 24-48 hours. Just let it run its course....I know you must feel terrible. If it lasts longer contact your doctor. Make sure you use disinfectant too so you guys don't continue to pass this around. Hope you all feel better by the holidays!! Hang in there!

If everyone were throwing up at the same time, I'd say it was food poisoning. But this looks like a good old virus, esp if kids and schools are involved.
All you can do: wash your hands!! use anti-bacterial gel, eat healthy, get lots of fresh air, keep your hands away from your face and use disposable cups and paper towels in the kitchen & bath.

This may seem like common sense, but wash your hands!! If they're unwashed, don't bring them anywhere near your face. Germs are more likely to get transmitted from your hands to openings in your face (mouth, nose, eyes, etc) than any other way. Hand sanitizer works wonders too. :)
If all else fails, maybe just chill at home?

It sounds like the flu. Let it run it's course. (I assume you are over it?? If you've been throwing up for 3 days or however long, maybe it's time to see a doctor, but my guess is the flu)

Sounds like a virus going around, you've had it so you shouldn't get it again. Have a nice Christmas.
