What are the symptoms of Listeria?
For many people, listeria has no symptoms or only causes mild symptoms over a few days.
The NHS states that these symptoms are typically:
- Having a high temperature of 38C or above
- Aches and pains
- Chills
- Feeling or being sick
- Diarrhoea
However, they did add that if you are pregnant then you may also suffer from a stomach ache or notice your baby move less than usual.
This is because babies with listeriosis may also "be irritable and feed less than usual".
