Description:isteria Initiative Data
We report confirmed and probable cases of listeriosis according to the Listeriosis 2019 case definition. In brief, confirmed cases occur in persons with laboratory confirmation by culture of Listeria monocytogenes from a normally sterile site (e.g., blood or cerebrospinal fluid) or from products of conception (e.g., amniotic fluid, placental or fetal tissue). Probable cases occur in persons with presumptive (culture-independent diagnostic test [CIDT]) laboratory evidence of Listeria monocytogenes from a normally sterile site or from products of conception or in a mother or neonate who met only an epidemiologic linkage criterion. Thus, in a mother-infant pair in which one has a confirmed case, the other will be either a confirmed or probable case. In the remainder of this report, we call these illnesses simply listeriosis.
