The Florida Department of Agriculture found Listeria monocytogenes in the salmon while conducting routine regulatory testing. 

According to the CDC, listeria can cause stillbirths and miscarriages in pregnant women. It can also cause fatal infections, especially in young children and older adults.

Symptoms of listeriosis include fevers, flu-like symptoms, diarrhea and vomiting. If listeriosis becomes an intestinal illness, symptoms start within 24 hours of consuming the food and typically lasts up to 3 days.

If the bacteria spreads beyond the intestines, listeriosis becomes an invasive illness. That usually occurs within two weeks of eating the contaminated food, and can cause seizures, headaches, loss of balance and confusion.
