On Nov. 9, 2024, Yu Shang Food recalled ready-to-eat meat and poultry products, and on Nov. 21 the company expanded its recall, the CDC said. All products with “Yu Shang” (establishment number “P46684” or “EST. M46684”) on the label are being recalled.
Recent listeria recalls have included deli meat, salmon, frozen waffles and pancakes.
Listeria can be especially harmful to pregnant people, people age 65 or older, and those with weakened immune systems. “This is because listeria is more likely to spread beyond their gut to other parts of the body, resulting in a severe condition known as invasive listeriosis,” the CDC said in a news release.
Intestinal illness symptoms usually start within 24 hours after eating contaminated food and usually last one to three days, according to the CDC. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns that people may also experience stiff neck and flu-like symptoms, such as muscle aches and fatigue.
Doctors recommend seeking medical attention if you suspect you’re infected. Treatment may include antibiotics or fluids to prevent dehydration.
