A significant listeria outbreak linked to Boar’s Head deli meats has resulted in nine deaths and 57 hospitalizations across 18 states, with New York accounting for the highest number of cases. The outbreak was initially detected on July 19, leading to a recall of over 7 million pounds of deli products, including various meats with sell-by dates extending into October 2024. The CDC has urged consumers to discard any recalled products and sanitize their refrigerators, emphasizing that listeria can persist even at refrigerated temperatures. Legal actions are underway, including a class action lawsuit alleging deceptive labeling by Boar's Head. Investigations revealed multiple health violations at the company's Virginia facility, prompting its temporary closure for disinfection. This outbreak is noted to be the largest since the 2011 cantaloupe-related listeriosis cases.
