Pigs are the source, and the disease is most often found in impoverished places lacking good public-health systems.

Theodore Nash of the National Institutes of Health estimated that 11 to 29 million people have neurocysticercosis in Latin America alone, and said the worms are found also in Africa and Asia.
I think we're safe for now

"Theodore Nash of the National Institutes of Health estimated that 11 to 29 million people have neurocysticercosis in Latin America alone". There's quite a broad difference in those figure estimates.
