Listeria Food Poisoning
Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious or sometimes fatal infections in those with compromised immune systems. Young children, frail or elderly persons, or those with weakened immune systems are especially susceptible.
The side effects of Listeria include high fever, severe headache, a still body, nausea, abdominal pain or diarrhea. Listeria is especially serious around women who are pregnant as it can cause miscarriages or stillbirth.
