About listeria infections
Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look, smell or taste bad, but can still cause serious and sometimes life-threatening infections. Anyone who has eaten any of the recalled products and develops symptoms of listeria infection should seek medical attention and tell their doctors about possible listeria exposure.
Additionally, anyone who has eaten any of the recalled products should monitor for symptoms in the coming weeks, as symptoms of listeriosis can take up to 70 days to develop after exposure to listeria.
Symptoms of Listeria infection may include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle pain, severe headache and neck stiffness. Special laboratory tests are needed to diagnose Listeria infections, which can mimic other diseases.
Pregnant women, older adults, young children, and people such as cancer patients with weakened immune systems are especially at risk for serious illness, life-threatening infections, other complications, and death. Although infected pregnant women may experience only mild flu-like symptoms, their infection can lead to premature birth, infection of the newborn, or even stillbirth.
