The reason this type of flu is called swine flu is because it “often” infects pigs. However, properly cooked pork does not increase the risk of getting swine flu.
In other words, live pigs transmit the flu to humans.
However, dead pigs (pork) do not transmit the flu to humans.
The transmission from pigs to human is thought, but not known for sure, to occur primarily in localities of swine farms where farmers are dealing with live pigs.
Learn more about swine flu from these websites so you better understand what it is and what it can do and cannot do so false rumors do not spread and so we can better identify and monitor this strain of flu and other flues that will happen in the future.
