A batch of Mlekpol Zloty Mazur Cheese In Slices is being recalled due to the possible presence of Salmonella Newport. The affected batch, identified by the batch code 30.08/P6 and a best-before date of November 28, 2024, was manufactured in Poland. This recall has been initiated as a precautionary measure to protect consumers from potential health risks associated with salmonella infection.
Salmonella infections typically manifest 12 to 36 hours after consumption but can range from 6 to 72 hours. Symptoms may include diarrhea (which can sometimes be bloody), fever, abdominal cramps, and headaches. While the illness generally lasts between 4 and 7 days, more severe cases, especially among the elderly, infants, and immunocompromised individuals, may require hospitalization.
Salmonella Newport can cause gastrointestinal distress and, in severe cases, require medical intervention. Those most vulnerable—such as the elderly, young children, and individuals with compromised immune systems—are at higher risk of severe illness. Early symptoms include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal pain, which can escalate without treatment.
