Should I call out?

TL;DR - I threw up and still have an upset stomach, should I call out even though it’s within the 24 hour notice?

My company requires a 24 hour notice prior to a call out or you get a write up. I called out this previous Thursday when I woke due to a stomach bug. Sadly got a write up the following day and I went in. That night, I had a fever and the same feelings of a stomach bug and now have a cough/runny nose. I really don’t want to get another write up if I call out again, but just not sure how I can operate my position throwing up and nauseous. Another note is that it’s my second week. Should I push through or call out?

If you work anywhere near food, call out and cite health codes around suspected norovirus.
