Frozen Food Contamination: Hundreds of Products Recalled Due to THIS Deadly Bacteria!

May 12, 2016Health & Wellness

After an initial recall of 15 frozen food products across North America, CRF Frozen Foods has expanded the notice to include several hundred more products.

The reason? A listeria contamination that has already claimed the lives of two people. Seven other individuals from three states have been hospitalized. The causes of illness and death have been linked directly to consuming CRF products, according to the company’s recall notice.

The Listeria Outbreak

The outbreak was discovered and linked to CRF’s Pasco, Washington site back in March by officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. They connected people from the states of California, Maryland and Washington who shared listeria infections.

After taking various samples of produce from retail stores, the CDC found that the listeria contamination contained in CRF Frozen Foods products matched that of the listeria found in the victims.

Symptoms of Listeria Infection

Listeria causes an infection that ranges from mild to severe. Symptoms will include the sudden appearance of fever, chills, a severe headache, vomiting and other flu-like symptoms according to About-Listeria.com.

Other issues that may result include fever, muscle aches and nausea or diarrhea that, at its worst, will involve up to 12 bowel movements per day.

Pregnant women are especially susceptible to listeria infection due to decreased immune function. Infection during pregnancy can result in premature labor, miscarriage, stillbirth or infection of the baby.

22% of listeria infections in pregnant women result in stillbirth or neonatal death.

Other groups with decreased immune function, such as children and the elderly, are also at risk.

The good news is that listeria can be treated effectively if caught early.
