Always fresh, never frozen: hepatitis A in Wendy’s employee

Toronto Public Health has identified a case of Hepatitis A in an employee at a Wendy’s restaurant located at 438 Nugget Avenue in Scarborough. Anyone who consumed food purchased at this restaurant between July 26 and August 6 may have been exposed to the hepatitis A virus. The risk of getting the infection is very low.

Depends on how well the employee washed his or her hands and whether they were prepping salads or other fresh product. Don’t eat poop.
