This happened to my Mom a few years ago in New Mexico. She was late 70s and immuno-compromised from cancer treatments. She ended up hospitalized on a ventilator due to meningitis resulting from the Listeria infection. She made it out OK, but it was very serious.
Best theory the Health Department had that it was from unpasteurized cheese.
Why does it seem like this has been happening more frequently?
