Epidemiology II Geographic Distribution and Prevalence

  • Chapter
Trichinella and Trichinosis

Abstract

It is probably correct to assume that trichinosis was present, and quite extensive in its geographic distribution, long before Trichinella spiralis was identified as the causative agent. There have been numerous comprehensive reviews on the epidemiology of trichinosis (Steele, 1970; Steele and Arambulo, 1975; Steele and Schultz, 1978; and others). This chapter is devoted to a survey of old and new findings on the distribution and prevalence of trichinosis throughout the world. For each geographic region, the information is presented, where available, with respect to the infection first in wildlife, then in domestic animals, and finally in man.
