technicians of 35 laboratories established for this purpose examine the meat of about 2.5 million pigs slaughtered annually. However, nearly 3 million pigs slaughtered on the farm are still exempt from this statute. Hence the danger of infection of the populace still exists, and the more so as about onequarter of the pork meat obtained by this means is processed into sausages that are consumed in a state which leaves the infectivity of the Trichinellae unimpaired. Veterinary control measures seek to ensure the inspection of meat from pigs slaughtered on the farm in enzootic areas; for this purpose 340 microscopes have been made available in recent years to veterinary surgeons in the country. Finally, the author discusses further measures taken against trichinellosis,aimed at preventing infection of domestic pigs by wild mammals. Irodalom 1.
