NSW Health Director Keira Glasgow urged consumers to check their fridges immediately, warning that eating the affected sprouts could make people sick.<\/p>\n

At least 44 people nationwide have already been infected, including 18 in NSW, two in SA, 15 in QLD and nine in VIC.<\/p>\n

Symptoms typically appear within six to 72 hours and can include headache, fever, stomach cramps, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting.<\/p>\n

While most people recover within a week with rest and fluids, infants, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems are at greater risk of severe illness and may require antibiotics or hospitalisation.<\/p>\n

Health authorities are continuing to investigate alongside the NSW Department of Primary Industries and other jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

Anyone experiencing prolonged or severe symptoms is advised to seek medical attention, while those needing non-urgent advice can contact healthdirect or speak with their GP or pharmacist.<\/p>\n
