Hepatitis A Outbreak in Virginia |
2021-11-01 |
[Epoch Times] At least three people in Virginia died in connection to a hepatitis A outbreak linked to the Famous Anthony’s restaurant chain, officials said. Famous Anthony's is now infamous. There have been a total of 49 cases of hepatitis A in connection to the Roanoke [VA] outbreak. Thirty-one of those cases have resulted in hospitalizations, officials said. According to the Mayo Clinic, hepatitis A is a "highly contagious liver infection" caused by a viral infection. "You’re most likely to get hepatitis A from contaminated food or water or from close contact with a person or object that’s infected. Mild cases of hepatitis A don’t require treatment. Most people who are infected recover completely with no permanent liver damage," the organization’s website says. Symptoms include vomiting and nausea, low-grade fever, fatigue, yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes—known as jaundice, itching, dark urine, and joint pain. Generally, symptoms are usually mild and go away after several weeks, although a severe hepatitis A infection can last months, according to the website. |
