Trichinellosis Surveillance
United States, 2002--2007
|
|
During 2002–2007, a total of 66 cases of trichinellosis were reported to CDC. The number of reported trichinellosis cases attributed to commercial pork consumption remains low. The greatest number of cases continues to be associated with consumption of meat other than pork, especially bear meat. For the incidence of trichinellosis in the United States to be reduced further, education regarding safe food preparation practices and prevention of trichinellosis should be
targeted
toward hunters and other consumers of wild game meat, especially bear.
