# Desert Hawk at Pueblo West Golf Course Hepatitis A Risk

 

 

 The Pueblo City-County Health Department alerted the public to a possible Hepatitis A exposure that may have happened on May 31, 2010, at Desert Hawk at Pueblo West golf course. Health officials say exposed patrons should contact their physician or the Health Department immediately to receive an immunization.

Patrons who consumed cold bottled beverages from a vending machine are not at risk. Nevin-Woods adds that anyone at the course who consumed these drinks and ice item(s) on this date should receive an injection of hepatitis A immunization or vaccine by June 11, 2010.

Anyone who may have been exposed can get the immunization through the Pueblo City-County Health Department, 101 W. 9th Street, Pueblo, CO at a walk-in clinic on Thursday, June 10 from noon- 6 p.m. and Friday, June 11 from 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. or from their physician. Both immune globulin (also called gamma globulin) and hepatitis A vaccine can prevent infection with hepatitis A virus if given within 14 days of exposure.
