Anyone at a higher risk of getting severely ill from listeria, a bacterium, shouldn’t eat meat or cheese from any deli counter, “unless it is reheated to an internal temperature of 165°F or until steaming hot,” the agency said.In New York, where seven of the sick people were identified, five bought deli meat or cheese from at least one location of the NetCost Market chain, but others did not, according to the CDC.
