Health authority warns of possible hepatitis A exposure at Saskatoon Club

The Saskatchewan Health Authority is warning patrons of the Saskatoon Club to keep an eye out for hepatitis A symptoms after a case was confirmed in an employee.

Hepatitis A is a liver infection caused by a virus, the health authority explained, and is most commonly spread through the consumption of contaminated food or water, or from close contact with an individual carrying the virus.

“The period of potential exposure for customers and staff of this establishment is February 25 to March 18, 2026,” the health authority said in a statement.

Anyone who consumed food or drinks at the club on 21st Street East during that period was advised to monitor themselves for symptoms for “up to 50 days” after the last exposure.

“Symptoms may include loss of appetite, dark urine, light-coloured stool, tiredness, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes),” the health authority said.

“Some people, especially young children, may get Hepatitis A infection without noticing any symptoms; however, they are still infectious to others.”

Anyone who experiences or develops symptoms was encouraged to “seek medical assessment promptly.”

650 CKOM reached out to the club for comment, but did not receive a response by publication time.
