Pregnant Woman Files Lawsuit Against Boar’s Head After Almost Losing Unborn Baby Due to Listeria-Tainted Deli Meat
A pregnant woman has filed a lawsuit against Boar’s Head after she purchased deli meat tainted with Listeria and almost lost her unborn child.
Ashley Solberg of Minnesota was 36 weeks pregnant when she bought and consumed sliced Boar’s Head ham and turkey from a Publix store in Hollywood, Florida, where she was vacationing.
“After consuming the contaminated deli meat, she developed a severe illness and was hospitalized. Thankfully, both mother and child survived the infection,” OFT Food Safety & Injury Lawyers said in a press release about the case.
OFT Law partner Brendan Flaherty has represented many pregnant women who Listeria infections have impacted.
“The impact of this bacteria on parents is devastating and frightening,” Flaherty said.
