Pork worms are pretty bad. I don't stand around in a lightning storm under trees, either.

>The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has estimated that consumption of pork is responsible for 525 000 foodborne infections, 2900 hospitalizations, and 82 deaths each year

>Lightning kills an average of 49 people each year in the United States and hundreds more are injured.

But the margin is smaller than I expected.

Trichinosis has been pretty much a non-issue in the US for decades now after Congress passed the Federal Swine Health Protection Act. Barely a dozen cases of trichinosis are reported every year in the US now, and all of which are attributed to eating wild game (usually boar). Pork in the US can be eaten raw or rare as long as it's handled properly.
