For the people asking about pork, the answer is, I believe, trichinosis aka roundworm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichinosis It is infectious in under-cooked meat and can make you very ill (including killing you).

But not in America! Please don't convince Americans to overcook pork into a hockey puck like our grandparents did.
Trichinosis in pork went away with tuberculosis etc 60 years ago. Today you find it only in a family-raised pig that is fed garbage (table scraps etc). Its not in any commercially-raised hog.
