NORRISTOWN - Montgomery County health officials on Thursday confirmed a third death in a Hepatitis A outbreak, but said the Italian restaurant at the center of the outbreak will reopen.Over two weeks ago, the Montgomery County Office of Public Health "temporarily closed" Gino’s Ristorante & Pizzeria in West Norriton in connection to a Hepatitis A outbreak that has infected at least ten people.

Seven of the lab-confirmed cases have resulted in hospitalizations, according to the department. An investigation by the department concluded that the exposure happened in late November and no longer presents a risk to the public.

The department lifted the temporary closure of Gino’s Ristorante & Pizzeria on Thursday after health inspectors provided education on necessary cleaning procedures.

The restaurant owner provided a list of restaurant employees working during the exposure period who are expected to return to the restaurant following re-opening.

Novak Djokovic could play in France under latest COVID-19 vaccine rules
PARIS - Top-ranked player Novak Djokovic could be allowed to defend his French Open title under the latest COVID-19 rules adopted by the French government, even if he is still not vaccinated when the clay-court Grand Slam starts in May.Djokovic was deported from Australia and barred from playing in the Australian Open this month for not meeting the country’s strict COVID-19 vaccination rules.It initially appeared that the Serb tennis star would not be welcomed at Roland Garros either under a new law intended to exclude the unvaccinated from stadiums, restaurants, bars and other public places.As questions quickly arose about Djokovic's status in France following his deportation from Australia, Sports Minister Roxana Maracineanu previously said that as soon as the law was passed the country's vaccine pass would become compulsory to enter stadiums, theater or exhibitions, "for all spectators, practitioners, French or foreign professionals."But the vaccine pass is not restricted to vaccination.Under the law that took effect on Monday, anyone who has proof they tested positive within the previous six months is exempt from having to show a vaccine pass. That suggests Djokovic could play in the French Open in May and June, the next Grand Slam tournament, because he has said he tested positive in mid-December.FILE - Novak Djokovic of Serbia serves during a practice session ahead of the 2022 Australian Open at Melbourne Park on Jan.

Grocery stores could close if labour, product shortages worsen: experts Some Canadians may have noticed empty shelves recently, but Wasylyshen said that is a result of the winter storm that hit Canada over the previous week.While weather plays a role in shipment delays, other, long-term issues still persist that has the retail council “concerned,” Wasylyshen said.These include labour shortages from absenteeism and the Omicron COVID-19 wave, which has caused workers to have to isolate and impacted operations.Fortunately, both British Columbia and Ontario have said that it appears the peak of the fifth wave of the pandemic has been reached, so more workers are expected to return, Wasylyshen said.Another hit likely to impact supply is the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for truckers on both sides of the border.Canada’s mandate came into effect on Jan.
