The FDA’s outbreak investigation report does not provide important information.

The FDA has issued an import alert requiring border holds on unnamed agricultural items linked to a deadly listeria outbreak that lasted from April 2024 until at least June 2025, according to a significantly revised report just released.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has investigated the outbreak along with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), but has not released details about the businesses behind the specific foods involved in the outbreak, which has reported 27 hospitalizations and one death. The institutions have not yet reported what state the patients lived in or at what age.
