An infant has died in California and nine people were hospitalized across four states in the latest listeria outbreak, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a news statement.
There were 11 cases reported across California, New York, Illinois and New Jersey, the CDC said, with the majority —seven people— falling ill in California. The outbreak might be higher than reported, the CDC said, because people might have gotten sick and not have gotten tested for listeria. It takes 3 to 4 weeks to determine if someone was part of an outbreak.
Interviews with affected people and laboratory findings show that Yu-Shang Food ready-to-eat meat and poultry products were making people sick, the CDC said. Food consumed includes pork hock, chicken feet, pork feet, duck neck, beef shank and pork tongue.
