Turkey Sub regrets

I am almost 16 weeks pregnant and I am not sure what came over me, but I completely caved and ate a turkey sub from a small local deli. I'm now having massive guilt and anxiety about it. So many people have said it's really not that big of a risk, but I have been googling and apparently during pregnancy we're 10x more likely to develop listeriosis than the general population??? I'm spiraling. I read that you also won't even really know if you have it. Like maybe just some flu like symptoms but then the fetus can be severely harmed. Ugh. I'm so mad at myself. 😣
