   A single worker at a Red Robin restaurant may have exposed up to   
   5,000 people to hepatitis A, warn health officials in   
   Springfield, Mo. Immunization clinics have been set up to treat   
   people who were at the restaurant between May 8 and 16, the News-   
   Leader reports.   
      
   Symptoms of the liver disease include fever, fatigue, loss of   
   appetite, and discolored urine, and although the incubation   
   period is 28 to 30 days, affected people need to be vaccinated   
   within 14 days of infection, warn health officials, who say this   
   is the most serious public health crisis in the county in nearly   
   20 years.   
      
   Health department inspectors didn't find any violations at the   
   restaurant and it has now been declared safe, reports KY3. "Upon   
   being informed of the incident, the Springfield Red Robin took   
   all safety measures to ensure the well-being of our guests and   
   team members including arranging the inoculation of all   
   Springfield team members," the chain said in a statement.   
      
   The News-Leader notes that the virus is typically spread via   
   food or drinks contaminated by "even microscopic amounts" of an   
   infected person's fecal matter.
