New information on the Hepatitis A outbreak that's hit some Fayette county schools.

The Health Department says it now appears some Tates Creek High School students may have been exposed.

26 freshmen tutored a third grade class at Tates Creek Elementary while a student with Hepatitis A was there.

The Health Department will provide free vaccines for those freshmen and the teachers and staff who also may have been exposed.

That clinic will be held tomorrow afternoon from 1:45 to 3:30 at the high school.

If you have any questions, call the Hepatitis A hotline at (859) 288-7529.
