Listeria outbreak: Health secretary orders NHS food review A "root and branch" review of hospital food has been ordered by the health secretary after two more deaths were linked to an outbreak of listeria.
The number of deaths related to pre-packed sandwiches and salads at hospitals had risen from three to five, Public Health England said on Friday.
It said evidence suggested the deceased ate the products before 25 May.
Products from the Good Food Chain, which supplied to 43 NHS trusts, have been withdrawn and production halted. BBC News
