Streptococcus suis is transmitted to humans through close contact with infected pigs or pork, and people in occupational contact with pigs (e.g. pig farmers, abattoir workers, veterinarians) represent the principal risk group for the disease.

Streptococcus suis wordt op de mens overgedragen via nauw contact met besmette varkens of besmet varkensvlees. Mensen die beroepsmatig met varkens in contact komen (zoals varkensboeren, medewerkers van slachterijen, dierenartsen), vormen de voornaamste risicogroep voor de ziekte.

Climate change may also alter the distribution and transmission of communicable diseases principally through impacting disease pathogens directly; through impacting the distribution of vectors which may carry diseases; or through impacting human behaviours leading to changing patterns of exposure to infectious diseases (e.g. increased time spent outdoors in woodlands where ticks live).

De klimaatverandering kan ook de verspreiding en overdracht van overdraagbare ziekten beïnvloeden, voornamelijk door rechtstreekse effecten op ziekteverwekkers, door effecten op de verspreiding van vectoren die ziekten kunnen overdragen of door effecten op menselijk gedrag die leiden tot veranderende patronen van blootstelling aan infectieziekten (bv. meer tijd buitenshuis doorgebracht in bosgebieden waar teken leven).
