East Tennessee health officials are still trying to determine the cause of eight more cases of Hepatitis A in the area.
The new cases follow an outbreak ofthe disease in April.
Seven of the cases are in Campbell County and one is in Scott County. All ofthe new cases were reported before the end of June.
Investigators are now interviewing infected people to see if they can find any connections that would reveal the source of the outbreak.
Health officials are also trying to determine whether the newer cases are related in any way to the April outbreak.
