FDA issues a warning on contaminated sausage.
The Food and Drug Authority (FDA) has issued a warning to the public about the dangers of eating AIA Wudy and Pavo sausages.
This comes after Italian authorities withdrew items prepared by Agricola Tre Vali due to the presence of Listeria bacteria in these sausages made from chicken meat.
There are two batches that are involved, with codes 1785417 and 01810919, with an expiration date of November 30, 2022.

Following the continuous recalls in Europe and other countries, the FDA performed a market surveillance exercise, and Pavo Frankfurt sausages with an expiry date of November 2022 were discovered in Ho in the Volta Region.
Since then, the goods have been kept for secure disposal. There are currently no AIA Wudy sausages available in Ghana.
However, the FDA has ordered that anyone in possession of the aforementioned goods bring them right away to either their national headquarters or regional offices spread out around the nation.
“The FDA wishes to assure the public that its surveillance teams continue to monitor the markets for any of the above-mentioned products,” it concluded.

What is Listeria infection
Listeria infection is a foodborne bacterial illness that can be very dangerous for pregnant women, people older than 65 and people with weakened immune systems.
It’s most commonly caused by eating improperly processed deli meats and unpasteurised milk products.
Healthy people rarely become ill from listeria infection, but the disease can be fatal to unborn babies, newborns and people with weakened immune systems.
How To Treat Listeria infection
Prompt antibiotic treatment can help curb the effects of listeria infection.

Listeria bacteria can survive refrigeration and even freezing. So people who are at higher risk of serious infections should avoid eating the types of food most likely to contain listeria bacteria.
