The Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Maine CDC) has identified a potential Hepatitis A exposure at two Westbrook restaurants. The infectious disease, caused by the Hepatitis A virus, was found in a food service worker who was on duty during their infectious period. The worker... See More was employed at Legends Rest Taproom and Paper City BBQ, both located at 855 Main St., Westbrook.

The individual was on duty during several dates in January and February, specifically January 14, 17-21, 24-28, 31, and February 2-4. Patrons who dined in or ordered takeout from these establishments during these dates could be at risk for Hepatitis A infection. The restaurant owners are cooperating fully with the Maine CDC, and there is no ongoing risk of exposure beyond these specified dates.

The issue was discovered after the infected individual was diagnosed with Hepatitis A. The Maine CDC was promptly notified, leading to an investigation that revealed the potential exposure at the two Westbrook restaurants. The Hepatitis A virus can be prevented with a vaccine, which is particularly effective if administered within 14 days of exposure. The vaccine is a two-dose series, with the first dose providing immunity for several years in at least 94 out of 100 people. The second dose ensures long-term protection.

The Maine CDC advises potentially exposed individuals to discard any leftover food purchased from the affected restaurants during the specified dates and to get vaccinated if eligible. Symptoms of Hepatitis A include fatigue, low appetite, stomach pain, nausea, diarrhea, dark-colored urine, jaundice, fever, and joint pain. These symptoms can appear 15-50 days after exposure to the virus and can range from mild to severe.

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. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

Dec. 18, 2023. Ate quiche from Hannaford. Both my husband and myself became sick with vomiting,diahreah. I passed out and was taken by ambulance to Northern Light Hospitol ER. Admitted to ICU where I spent 2 nights. My husband reported this to Hannaford so they could remove... See More the Quiche. They offered the dbl your money back but were not very helpful beyond that. My only intention was to prevent other people from becoming ill...not money. Recieved a rather meaningless call from Hannafords out of state insurance company mostly to advise what kind of proof I would need. For what I don't know. I only know I was deathly sick and warn anyone against purchasing this item. And save all receipts . | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting See Less
