Listeria is an organism which can cause serious or fatal infections in children, the elderly, and others with weakened immune systems, the FDA reported.
Healthy people can also suffer symptoms including fever, headaches, nausea, stiffness, abdominal pain and diarrhea, and the infection can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
