Franklin County Sheriff's deputies say an inmate at the Jackson Pike jail assigned to kitchen duties has tested positive for hepatitis A. 

Deputies have been operating vaccination clinics at the county's two jail facilities for staff and inmates. Two employees at a pair of Columbus area restaurants tested positive earlier this year. Ohio officials declared a statewide outbreak last year.
