An article in Food Production Daily has reported that the CDC have confirmed that the death toll in the cantaloupe Listeria outbreak in the USA has now reached 18. It would seem that FSA concerns over Listeriosis being on the increase are well founded. It also appears to be manifesting itself in the over 60’s age range and this does not appear to be aberration of reporting but a genuine increase for which the cause is not known.
