Can Pizza Consumption Cause Listeria In Pregnancy?

I am 17 weeks pregnant and really paranoid about Listeria to the point where i obsess about everything I put in my mouth. For lunch today i stopped at a pizza place and had two slices that were not fresh out of the oven but were in glass case with heat lamps. They probably were not there for too long as it was the lunch time rush. Should i be concerned because pizza was only luke warm?
