Massachusetts Restaurant Customers Potentially Exposed to Hepatitis A, Health Officials Warn
- On May 24, 2025, health authorities in Massachusetts alerted individuals who visited The Red Inn in Provincetown from April 30 through May 15 to the risk of possible hepatitis A exposure.
- The warning was issued after an employee involved in food service at the establishment was confirmed to have hepatitis A and had worked during the period when customers may have been exposed.
- Health agencies advised exposed diners to contact healthcare providers promptly for possible preventive treatment, which is effective only if given within two weeks before symptoms start.
- The health department stated hepatitis A symptoms include fever, fatigue, nausea, and jaundice, while even mild or asymptomatic cases can spread the virus easily through food handling or close contact.
- The Red Inn has since been cleared to resume work, and officials emphasized thorough handwashing especially before food preparation to prevent further spread.
