Fourteen people have died from an outbreak of hepatitis A in San Diego, and experts believe it to be the deadliest outbreak of the disease in the US in decades, the Guardian has learned. In large part, the victims were homeless people who have had to contend with a lack of 24-hour public restrooms, even though hand-washing is one of the best defenses against infection.

Actually, the cause of the outbreak is largely due to homeless people...........

The outbreak started in November 2016 and has grown among the region’s homeless population. There have been 228 confirmed infections, including 161 people who had to be hospitalized, according to the county’s Health and Human Services Agency.

The virus that causes the disease moves from person to person through shared food, drink, drugs or other forms of close contact. Health investigators have not discovered the source of the outbreak, though they note that poor sanitation — not washing hands after using the bathroom, for instance — is the most likely culprit. If left untreated, hepatitis A attacks the liver and can lead to death.

According to the county agency’s latest update on the outbreak, about 70 percent of the confirmed cases have involved homeless people. It has not said whether the same pattern applies to the five fatalities, and it has declined to make public the ages and genders of those five victims.
