Oh no!Did I say anything about live worms coming out when you pour coke? Even then, the Trichinae worms aren't the only thing you have to worry about, they're actually not that bad compared to the Toxoplasma. And then there's the issue that pigs don't sweat but that's another story. While the Trichinae rates are down, other disease rates are up. Regardless, there are often worms in Pork worldwide. 16% of the American population in 1943 had Trichnosis, so did Pork eating become safe only since the last few decades? Is it only safe in America but not China where 20% of all pigs have it? Perhaps pork eating should be regarded as safe in terms of modern America only?
I'm sure you're aware they are highly corrolated with hook worms, tape worms, and round worms too.

Eating Pork can be Hazardous to your Health
There's the Toxoplasma issue which almost entirely comes from pork eating and affects a huge chunk of the population.
Endoparasites are found on the inside of your birds body and are referred to as Helminths in the veterinary world which is a term used to cover a wide range of internal parasites or 'worms' living inside animals. Nematodes are the group of worms that we are mainly concerned about in poultry.
