Beyonce Given All Clear

Beyonce Knowles has been given the all-clear after a warning she may need a test for Hepatitis A, reports DigitalSpy.

All guests at a Sports Illustrated party in Hollywood, were advised of the risk after it emerged a caterer there had acute hepatitis A. He could have passed the disease on through handling food at the event.

However, Beyonce's spokesman, saidneither she or himself had eaten at the party:

“Thank goodness neither one of us ate. According to the health department, she wasn’t at risk."

The Los Angeles County Department of Health had contacted everyone who attended the party advising they be vaccinated if they had eaten uncooked food there.

Hepatitis A can be passed on if food is contaminated or through bad hygiene.
