Food Poison Journal

A case of Hepatitis A has been confirmed in a food worker at Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen on earl Core Road, according to the Monongalia County Health Department.

“While the risk of contracting Hepatitis A from a food worker is low, people who have not been vaccinated against Hepatitis A who have consumed food from the restaurant within the past two weeks should consider getting a Hepatitis A vaccine to prevent infection,” said Dr. Lee B. Smith, MCHD executive director and county health officer
