If not done properly can cause serious disease

The Fayette County Health Department is currently requesting that anyone who has received a tattoo in a private home or other facilities that are not "tattoo parlors", please contact the Communicable Disease Nurse as soon as possible.

This is in regards to potential exposure to a serious infectious disea
se resulting from improper handling and sanitation of equipment including like Hepatitis C, HIV and even mercer. Deputy Health Commissioner Leigh  Thompson said the person who has received a tattoo may be unaware that they are infected with this disease and need to be tested right away.

Contact the Fayette County Health Department at 740-335-5910. All health information given will be held confidential.
