3.9.1. Trichinella T 9 in Asia

Trichinella T9 has thus far only been reported in animals from Japan ( Table 27). Trichinella T9 has been found in six different host species across Japan, primarily from Hokkaido, the northernmost of Japan’ s main islands, and from the northern regions of Honshu, Japan’ s main island. There has been one reported human outbreak of Trichinella T9 from wildlife, from consumption of undercooked brown bear meat (Tada et al., 2018) ( Table 28).
