How can you get over being scared of the listeriosis outbreak and what is the youngest EVER case of listerios and what are all the foods listerious can be in?
I believe listeriosis is most commonly found in deli meats. If you've ever had a pack of ham or turkey, for example, and then after a couple weeks, you see some white spots on it, that is listeriosis. It's not that big of a deal, I mean, you'll get sick and probably have diarrhea or puke, but you'll live. Just make sure there aren't any white spots and your food smells fresh and cook your food thoroughly and don't leave anything out on the counter for more than two hours. Refridgerate everything immediately.
