TULARE COUNTY (KFSN) -- A recall of frozen strawberries contaminated with the Hepatitis-A virus in the South Valley.

Two locations in Tulare County are impacted by this recall-- Apple Annie's on Blackstone Street in Tulare and Sanad Freeze on Armstrong Avenue in Earlimart.

Health officials said food items sold at those restaurants include strawberry lemonade, strawberry topping for pancakes, and strawberry ice cream served in late October.

So far, there have been no local reports of anyone getting the Hepatitis-A virus. But, health officials are encouraging those who may have eaten the food to get a preventative vaccine.
