Aww, I hope your niece feels better soon! Honestly I think the doctor might mean viral gastroenteritis or something related to stomach virus lah, sometimes they call it different names depending on the clinic. What I understand is it's just a tummy bug going around, and in pregnancy it can feel quite scary because of the cramping and loose motions, tapi usually it passes within a few days with rest and plenty of fluids. At 8 months pregnant, she should make sure she's drinking enough air and eating light foods like plain porridge or soup so she doesn't get dehydrated, that's the main thing doctors worry about at this stage. Definitely good that she went to check up already; I'd say just follow the doctor's advice closely and if the pain gets worse or anything feels off, don't hesitate to go back to the hospital, okay? Do send her my well-wishes, third trimester is already tough enough without this!
