Talk:Trichinosis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedia CD Selection Trichinosis is either included in the 2006 Wikipedia CD Selection or is a candidate for inclusion in the next version (the project page is at WPCD Selection). Please maintain high quality standards, and if possible stick to GFDL and GFDL-compatible images.

AFAIK, there are no known cases of trichinosis being spread by cannibalism. I know the person who made that addition, and I know that she knows of no such cases. It simply seemed logical to her. Is that misleading? Should we remove it? -User:Homo_Stannous

I guess it is kinda pointless to say if there aren't any known cases of it happening.

Unsourced:

The risk of trichinosis is the historical basis for the halal and kosher prohibitions on eating pork.

As far as I know there is no historical account of the basis for the dietary laws, and this must be speculation.
