Hospitals may be risking patients’ lives by serving them sandwiches contaminated with a lethal bug, according to an article on the Daily Mail website.
The danger comes in pre-packed sandwiches. Food safety advisers are warning that they can contain listeria, which can trigger meningitis.
A recent report says that pre-packed sandwiches have been responsible for ‘almost all’ hospital outbreaks of listeria since 2003.
Food safety company STS, which advises hospitals and care homes, believes patients may also be dying from eating infected sandwiches at these institutions.
