This document summarizes a study on Trichinella seroprevalence in indigenous pigs in Hoa Binh province, Vietnam. The study tested 352 pigs from six communes and found an overall seroprevalence of 13.6%, with no significant differences among communes. Sero prevalence was higher in female pigs (17%) than male pigs (8.8%), and in pigs over 6 months (19%) than under 6 months (9.5%). This provides first data on Trichinella infection in these pigs, which are raised under roaming/semi-hygienic conditions posing disease risks. Increased awareness and improved livestock practices are recommended to make pork safer for local consumption.
