As I mentioned, the incubation period of norovirus is 12-48 hours - so if you believe your doctor's diagnosis of norovirus is correct, it is virtually impossible that the second meal caused it. And again, given the median incubation time for norovirus is on the high side of the range, it is in fact much more likely that it was something you ate prior to the flight.
