Pigs are actually very clean animals and stay away from their feces. Humans on the other hand, place pigs into pig styes where they can't get away from their feces and the entire place tends to turn into mud-feces soup.

Which is the exact same thing that happens in all CAFO, even for beef.

The reasons some religions ban eating of pork is because of parasites like tape worms that, in the medieval world, were highly prevalent between pigs and humans. Banning it was a way of keeping the followers healthier.
