Shredded chicken blamed for hospital listeria outbreak
Up to nine patients have been affected in three states with other cases under investigation.
A 2kg pack of shredded chicken sold to hospitals and cafes is the likely culprit behind a multi-state listeria outbreak, Queensland health authorities say.
The outbreak includes four patients probably infected at the Mater Hospital in Brisbane, another patient possibly infected at Redcliffe Hospital in Brisbane, three more patients in NSW and one in Victoria.
