Hundreds of students at two Florida high schools are on high alert for hepatitis A symptoms after an employee at their prom venue was diagnosed with the infection.
One person working at Silverthorn Country Club Restaurant was diagnosed with the liver infection - but not until after both Springstead High School and Central High School had their proms there.
The infected employee was working at Silverthorn's restaurant between April 12 and 30, and one prom was held there on April 13 and another on the 27th.
Health officials are scrambling to spread the word to students get tested and vaccinated and parents are outraged by the possible exposures.
