That knowing about Listeria and its symptoms
Listeria is a type of bacteria that can cause an infection called listeriosis, according to American centers for disease control and prevention. The condition is the most dangerous for pregnant people, newborns, people with weakened immune systems and adults over 65 or over, according to the agency. For pregnant people, listeriosis can cause loss of pregnancy or premature birth.
Symptoms of intestinal listeriosis are generally light and include diarrhea and vomiting, according to the CDC. A type of listeriosis more severe, invasive listeriosis, occurs when listeria spreads beyond the intestines. Symptoms of invasive listeriosis – which may include a fever and pseudo -Grippal symptoms, including fatigue and muscle pain as well as headache, confusion and loss of balance – generally begin within two weeks of consumption of contaminated food.
The CDC estimates that around 1,600 people get listeriosis in the United States each year and about 260 die.
