A New Jersey Starbucks employee who worked in November after testing positive for hepatitis A and handled food might have exposed thousands to the virus, officials said.

The Camden County Health Department said in a news release that people who went to that Starbucks at 1490 Blackwood Clementon Road on Nov. 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, and 13, and not vaccinated against hepatitis A “should receive the vaccine as soon as possible but no later than 14 days after contact.”
