    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Listeria bacteria can cause an illness called listeriosis.

    The symptoms can include:

    • Fever
    • Muscle aches
    • Fatigue
    • Headache
    • Stiff neck
    • Confusion
    • Loss of balance
    • Seizures

    Listeria can cause intestinal issues including diarrhea or vomiting. The symptoms can start within 24 hours of eating contaminated food and will last one to three days.

    The CDC said that it can be dangerous for a pregnant woman to develop listeriosis. While the infection may never show symptoms or the symptoms may be mild, listeria could lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery or a life-threatening infection in the newborn.

    You should talk to a doctor if you ate food that was recalled or linked to a Listeria outbreak and you have symptoms of listeriosis, the CDC said.
