Three people have now died connected to the listeria outbreak among Boar’s Head deli meats, the CDC said. A person most recently died in Virginia, adding to earlier deaths in New Jersey and Illinois.
The new recall includes 71 products made between May 10 and July 29 under the Boar's Head and Old Country brand names, following an earlier recall of 200,000 pounds of sliced deli poultry and meat.
Six people were hospitalized earlier this year for listeriosis, three of whom died. Two of those who survived the infection said they had milkshakes from Frugals in Tacoma, Wash., before getting sick.
