Ate blueberries from amish stand im 8 weeks pregnant. my mom served them, rinsed them with tap water but no soap. what is my listeria risk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Listeria risk: Contact the CDC to see if they have any reported outbreaks from blueberries or anything else in this area. You can do this online. Or your IL state health dept. Would also search local newspapers for any out breaks. Or even google listeria from blueberries in ILL. Anyway likely very low but time will tell. Ask any others who have eaten from the same batch to let you know if they get sick.
