County health officials are urging patrons who dined at a Buffalo Wild Wings location in Los Angeles County to consider getting vaccinated for hepatitis A. This advisory comes after reports of potential exposure to the virus at the restaurant. Individuals who visited the establishment during the specified timeframe are encouraged to seek the hepatitis A vaccine if they have not already received it.
