HONOLULU – The Hawaii State Department of Health (DOH) is investigating a possible case of hepatitis A infection in a food service employee. This case is unrelated to the earlier cases identified by DOH on Jan. 5.
During the potential infectious period, the individual worked as a food service employee at Wah Kung Restaurant, located at 1151 Mapunapuna Street in Honolulu, from Dec. 1 to Jan. 6. At this time, no infections have been linked to exposure at this business. A DOH press release said it is providing the information to prevent possible new cases.
