Lafollette, Campbell County (WVLT) - A tenth case of Hepatitis-A is confirmed in Campbell County.

Health officials confirmed another case last week in a daycare worker in Jacksboro.

At this point, health officials do not believe the new case is related to the daycare.

Health officials say the person is part of the extended family involved in the previous cases. Health officials say they will re-interview all the people who have contracted the virus recently to check for a direct connection, or even indirect connections through their children.

At this point, there is no indication of the source of these recent Hepatitis-A cases.
