Hepatitis A Contamination Sparks Multiple Frozen Fruit Recalls

Frozen berries sold under the brand name Great Value at Walmart and the Rader Farms brand sold at Costco and HEB stores have been recalled due to potential hepatitis A contamination. The virus is generally transferred to berries through contaminated irrigation water or by harvest workers who have not washed their hands after using the bathroom. Symptoms of hepatitis A can last up to two months and include fatigue, nausea, stomach pain, and jaundice. Consumers are urged to check their freezers for the recalled product and either discard it or return it to the store for a refund.
