Yes, I agree that's really disgusting.

Doctors removed the worm and don't believe Alvarez will have any lingering health problems. No one knows exactly where she picked up the worm –- doctors said worms can come from eating undercooked pork or spread by people who don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom, according to the report.

“It only takes one person who is spreading it constantly to get a lot of people exposed and some of those people are going to go on to develop this problem,” Nakaji said.

Alvarez, who is now healthy and has resumed normal activities such a playing ball with family in her backyard, said she hopes people learn this lesson from her story.

“Wash your hands, wash your hands,” she added.

I wonder if this was caused from trichinella. They really didn't say much about the cause or the type of worm in the woman's brain.

I remember reading a few years ago that trichinella was mostly a non-issue here in the states, because we tend to adhere more closely to recommended cooking times and temperatures for pork and most of us have no interest in eating carnivores or scavengers.

Makes me wonder if that was just pure bullshit sponsored by pork growers, trying to sell more meat in the wake of the Mad Cow scare.

There is a similar parasite that lives in  guinea pigs that are available in some ethnic stores around here
