The Health Department has confirmed that another person has tested positive for Hepatitis-A in Campbell County. This makes a total of 13 confirmed cases in the area and 2 suspected.
Most of the people are from the Lafollette area, another is from Scott County and one more is in Anderson County.
Right now the Health Department is waiting for test results from 7 restaurant employees who’ve shown some signs of Hepatitis-A. Those employees are from 2 different restaurants, neither of which the Health Department will name.
The potentially ill employees are off the job and the Health Department says no one else should be at risk of exposure.
