Unfortunate health alert. – Vancouver Coastal Health is notifying people who dined at Sea Monkey Coffee — located onsite at Sunday Cider in Gibsons (1632 Sunshine Coast Hwy.) — about a possible exposure to hepatitis A from Aug. 1 to 25 inclusive.
Note: this notification is only for people who dined at Sea Monkey Coffee on the noted dates. It is not intended for customers of any other business at the address, including Sunday Cider, or for people who dined at Sea Monkey outside these dates.
People who consumed only drinks from this venue are also not at risk of exposure. Getting immunized with one dose of hepatitis A vaccine can help to prevent infection if given within two weeks of exposure.
Therefore, VCH recommends anyone who dined at Sea Monkey from Aug. 14 to 25 receive a hepatitis A vaccine as soon as possible. Although the risk of transmission to the public is low, VCH Public Health advises anyone who consumed food from the Sea Monkey food truck during this time period to monitor themselves for symptoms of hepatitis A, which can take two to seven weeks to develop after exposure and last for about two months.
Symptoms of hepatitis A include:
• Feeling very tired
• Feeling sick to your stomach and not feeling hungry
• Losing weight without trying
• Pain on the right side of the belly, under the rib cage (where your liver is)
• Fever
• Sore muscles
• Yellow skin and eyes (jaundice), dark urine, and clay-coloured stools If you have early symptoms of hepatitis A it is very important to see your health care provider. In most cases, the infection goes away on its own and does not lead to long-term liver problems. In rare cases, it can be more serious.
A free dose of hepatitis A vaccine is available for those who are eligible at clinics and pharmacies throughout the VCH region. A current list of locations — as well as information about causes, tests, treatments and prevention —can be found at https://www.vch.ca/en/health-topics/hepatitis-a. Those who are outside the VCH region should check with a local pharmacy about vaccine availability or contact their local Public Health unit.
