Thailand warns against uncooked pork as Streptococcus suis deaths rise 

The Department of Disease Control (DDC) has warned the public to avoid consuming uncooked pork after 12 deaths were linked to Streptococcus suis infections in northeastern Thailand. Between January and September, 149 cases of hearing loss caused by the bacterium were reported, with the highest number in Nakhon Ratchasima. Elderly individuals are most affected, and the bacterium is contracted through contact with raw pork, pigs' blood, or contaminated surfaces. The DDC advises buying pork from reliable sources and cooking it thoroughly, while also avoiding direct contact with raw pork and covering open wounds.
