The data of the products involved are:

According to the information available, the initial distribution has been carried out in several provinces of Andalusia (Córdoba, Granada, Málaga and Seville) and an establishment in the Balearic Islands , although it is not ruled out that there may be redistributions to other autonomous communities.

The AESAN has transferred this information to the competent authorities of the autonomous communities through the SCIRI, in order to verify the withdrawal of the affected products from the marketing channels.

People who have these specific products and lots affected by this alert at home are recommended to refrain from consuming them.

If you have consumed any of the products from the affected batches and present symptoms compatible with listeriosis (vomiting, diarrhea or fever), it is recommended to go to a health center.
