Listeria strikes about 1,600 Americans annually, killing about 250, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The elderly, children under 5 and people with damaged immune systems are in the greatest danger of getting the worst effects. It can cause stillbirths and miscarriages in pregnant women. Most people get fever, headaches, nausea, stomachaches and diarrhea.
