GENEVA, April 26 (Reuters) - People are not at risk of being infected with swine flu through exposure to pork, the World Health Organisation (WHO) said on Sunday. "Right now we have no evidence to suggest that people are getting infected from exposure to pork or to pigs so right now we have zero evidence that exposure to meat leads to infection," Keiji Fukuda, acting WHO director-general for health security and environment, told a teleconference.
