Is this test for you?
If suspect you might have ingested food or liquid that was contaminated by faeces you should be tested for Hepatitis A immediately. Most hepatitis cases are found in countries where there is poor sanitation. There is also an increased risk of hepatitis A for men who have sex with men and those who inject drugs. If you suspect that you might have been exposed to the virus, it is important to take a test.
