The name of the employee is not disclosed. He worked in a restaurant from 4 to October 20. The Department of Health asks everyone who visited this restaurant during the specified period to vaccinate against hepatitis A.
In the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, it is noted that the hepatitis A virus can be infected by eating or drinking something “contaminated by a small amount of feces of an infected person.”
Those who get hepatitis A—not to be confused with hepatitis B or C, which are caused by different viruses—can be sick for several weeks and usually make a full recovery, unlike other types of hepatitis, which are chronic. Deaths are rare, but hepatitis A can cause liver failure and death, usually in people over 50 years of age.
Symptoms of hepatitis A are fever, fatigue, dark urine, vomiting, joint pain, jaundice, and some other individual manifestations of the disease. The disease can be prevented with a vaccine. Officials said that all people who visited the 4-20 restaurant in October can get a free vaccination at Health's Sulfur Springs.
