FSA reported on the ongoing risk of Listeria associated with ready-to-eat smoked fish

The Food Standards Agency (FSA), Food Standards Scotland (FSS), and the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) are reinforcing their advice to vulnerable groups of consumers (those who are over 65, pregnant, or have weakened immune systems) concerning the risks of Listeria monocytogenes infection linked to ready to eat smoked fish. The investigation has identified 14 linked cases of listeriosis since 2020, with eight of these since January 2022. Cases have been identified in England and Scotland. The majority of these individuals reported eating ready-to-eat smoked fish. One case has been a pregnant woman. @ https://www.food.gov.uk/news-alerts/news/vulnerable-consumers-advised-of-ongoing-risk-of-listeria-associated-with-ready-to-eat-smoked-fish
