Listeria monocytogenes
Severity
No illnesses have been reported. Affected products are marked with the lot code #231129. The affected cheese was distributed and sold via wholesale customers, retail storefront, and through Kenny’s Farmhouse Cheese website https://kennyscheese.com
Who's At Risk?
Pregnant women, young children, frail or elderly people and others with weakened immune systems. This is because Listeria is more likely to spread beyond their gut to other parts of their body, resulting in a severe condition known as invasive listeriosis.
Symptoms
Listeria infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn in pregnant women. Healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.
