The Maine CDC suggests getting vaccinated to prevent Hepatitis A, indicating successful prevention in at least 94 out of 100 people after a single dose. The second dose ensures long-term protection. Those exposed may avoid the illness if vaccinated within two weeks post-exposure. Any leftovers from the restaurant during the specified dates should be discarded.
People who patronized or worked at the restaurant are advised to watch for symptoms of Hepatitis A for up to 50 days from the last date of potential exposure. Symptoms may include fatigue, low appetite, stomach pain, nausea, and jaundice, among other signs.
In case you experienced Hepatitis A symptoms, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance.
