Unwashed hands probably have led to an outbreak of hepatitis A in several cities in Illinois. While yet uncomfirmed, the probable initial source of the outbreak may be a McDonalds Restaurant in Milan, Il. Public officials are invterviewing people who are ill in an effort to determine the cause.
So far the Illinois Department of Public health has confirmed 19 cases and two suspect cases of the contagious disease.
Hepatitis A is rarely fatal, and most people recover in a few weeks without any complications. It does not have potential to permanently damage the liver, as other forms of hepatitis do
However HIV Poz people should make sure they're up to date on their Hep A and Hep B shots. Having the shots will prevent you from being infected. As many retroviral drugs are metastasized in the liver, it's vital to avoid diseases that can cause liver problems. As of yet, there is no shot for Hep C which can be fatal.
