#Listeriosis is a foodborne disease caused by L. monocytogenes bacteria. After ingestion via contaminated food, it can cause severe, life-threatening disease, often manifested as #septicaemia and/or #meningitis.
The severe disease happens particularly among elderly & immunocompromised people. It also may result in complications related to pregnancy.

The study was conducted on 3 categories of food:
- packaged hot/cold smoked or cured fish
- soft/semi-soft cheeses
- packaged heat-treated meat products
The results show that the listeriosis risk in ready-to-eat fish products requires further attention
