Dr. Sara Hasan on hepatitis outbreak in Minnesota children

Health officials in Minnesota are asking parents to keep an eye out for signs of hepatitis in their kids as the number of children who have experienced the severe liver disease increases across the country. Three Minnesota children under the age of three have recently contracted hepatitis.

One child required a liver transplant, and all three have since recovered. Dr. Sara Hassan is a pediatric transplant hepatologist and gastroenterologist at Mayo Clinic. She joined host Cathy Wurzer to talk more about the increase in hepatitis cases and what parents can do to keep their children safe.
