       Hong Kong reports Streptococcus suis infection in 93 year old
       woman
       Jun 28, 2026
       During the incubation period, she purchased raw pork from a meat
       stall and a supermarket in the Eastern District and handled raw
       pork without wearing gloves during food preparation. Her home
       contact remained asymptomatic.
       Human Streptococcus suis infection is a zoonotic infection
       associated with pigs. The infection can be fatal, particularly
       if the specific strain produces certain toxins. S. suis
       infection can manifest itself in meningitis, hearing impairment,
       toxic shock, septicemia and endocarditis.
