Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, the frail or elderly, and people with weakened immune systems. Although healthy people may only experience short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women.
