Cyclops Nov 2020 12:30pm, 21 Nov 2020 4,244 posts	0 Cyclops Pigs used to have some other worms that affected humans too - mostly found in mothers who gave themselves the undercooked bit of pork - but has now been eradicated from the British herd? flock? (what is the collective noun of pigs?). Did it as part of my Zoology degree in the 80s but can't remember what it's called.

Flatlander Nov 2020 1:08pm, 21 Nov 2020 1,826 posts	0 Flatlander Cyclops, several pig worms can infect humans. Pork tapeworm is caused by Taenia solium. Other than that, direct ingestion from pigs is usually by Trichinella, indirectly from the environment it would usually be by Ascaris.
