[Hepatitis A and a grill bar].
A small outbreak of hepatitis A infection in October 1988 involving 11 patients is described, together with the history of the suspected index case. Six to eight weeks before the onset of disease, all patients had consumed one or several meals containing elements of uncooked food in a local grill bar in the Copenhagen county area. The virus had probably been imported from Egypt. Public sanitation authorities were alerted immediately after the first suspicion was raised.
