Morphologic and molecular testing of muscle from the leftover portion of bear meat revealed that the bear was infected with <jats:italic>Trichinella murrelli<\/jats:italic>, a sylvatic species of <jats:italic>Trichinella<\/jats:italic> found in temperate North America. Clinical records revealed a high attack rate for this outbreak: 78% for persons consuming any bear meat and 100% for persons consuming raw or undercooked bear meat. To our knowledge, this report is the first published report of a human trichinellosis outbreak in the United States attributed to <jats:italic>T. murrelli<\/jats:italic>, and it is the second such outbreak reported worldwide.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.2012.12-0075","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,8,1]],"date-time":"2012-08-01T21:56:16Z","timestamp":1343858176000},"page":"297-302","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":40,"title":["Outbreak
