A soft cheese which could be fatal when eaten has been recalled by health officials over concerns of a listeria outbreak.

Two people have died in France, while a further 21 in the country have become seriously ill.

It is understood they ate bacteria-contaminated dairy between December 2024 and August 13, 2025.

Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway have also confirmed four cases of listeriosis between April 14 and July 9.

Concerns have now been raised that the infection may have spread to the UK - but no related cases have been reported so far.

The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) believe pasteurised soft cow's and goat's milk cheeses produced by French manufacturer Chavegrand could be linked to the cases.
