Listeria is a type of bacteria whose full name is Listeria monocytogenes and causes an infection called listeriosis, from which hundreds of thousands of people die a year worldwide. Listeria is not as prevalent as salmonella which is another deadly virus, yet it should not be neglected because in 25% of cases of infections are fatal.

The infection is most dangerous in adults after a certain age, those with poor immunity and especially pregnant women because it can induce miscarriage. In the case of pregnant women, the symptoms of infection are the same as the flu, but the bacteria crosses the placenta causing deformities of the fotus or loss of it. This bacterium is found everywhere around us, in the soil, water and many food products such as meat, animal milk or its by-products. In the past, this bacterium has spread through frozen vegetables and packaged salads. /Alert.al
