Symptoms of a Listeria Infection
Symptoms of a Listeria infection usually appear within 24 hours of exposure but sometimes they can take as long as 70 days to appear. They include:
- High fever, stiff neck, and other muscle aches
- Severe headache, loss of balance, confusion, and convulsions
- Upset stomach or diarrhea
Listeria poses a heightened risk to people 65 and over and those who have weakened immune systems. Pregnant women are 20 times more likely than other people to contract Listeria infections.
