Infections with Listeria may not cause symptoms for up to 70 days. The most serious complications include invasive infections in the bloodstream and nervous system, such as meningitis.
Food poisoning with Listeria is especially dangerous for young children, elderly adults, people with weak immune systems, and pregnant women, according to the FDA:
“Healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Listeria monocytogenes infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.”
