Hi Anonymous,
Listeria is a bacteria which is acquired by eating food that is infected. This is not an airborne bacteria if this is your concern. For more information about listeria, please read the Center of Disease Control and Prevention website here http://www.cdc.gov/listeria/prevention.html.

If you have further questions, please feel free to ask.
