Officials said they were investigating a reported case of hepatitis A affecting an employee of a Beverly Hills Whole Foods, just days after announcing that several cases had been detected among unhoused people in L.A. County.

Los Angeles County health officials are investigating a reported case of hepatitis A in an employee of a Whole Foods supermarket in Beverly Hills and are warning of possible public exposure to the highly contagious liver infection. Officials warned that anyone who purchased products from the seafood counter at the grocery store on Crescent Drive between April 20 and May 13 could be affected and urged those not already immune to hepatitis A to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

“The team member diagnosed is not working, and we are not aware of anyone else becoming ill,' the company said in a statement. 'While we have strict food safety processes in place in our stores, we encourage anyone who believes they may have been exposed to follow the guidance of the health department.
