Humans may contract trichinosis (caused by the parasite, Trichinella spiralis) by eating undercooked pork.
Many different opinions on this topic exist. The bacteria in pork dies at 137F. Most cooking sites will suggest that you allow the internal temp to reach 150-160 degrees, using a meat thermometer to determine this. Pork has become much safer in recent years, so a small amount of pink is acceptable provided the temperature passes the 'kill temp'; cooking pork until it is gray and leathery is no longer critical, at least in the USA, UK, and other 'modern' nations with meat inspection guidelines that are well-enforced. Once that temp is reached, it becomes a matter of personal preference for texture and flavor.
Uncooked or undercooked pork can contain harmful bacteria such as salmonella, E. coli, and Trichinella spiralis, a parasite that causes trichinosis. It is important to cook pork thoroughly to kill any potential bacteria and parasites.

Your immune system attacks it. The next occurence depends on what bacteria built up in you.
Raw or undercooked meats, particularly poultry (chicken and turkey), ground beef, and pork, are common sources of pathogenic bacteria. These meats can harbor bacteria such as Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria, which can lead to foodborne illnesses. Proper cooking and handling are essential to reduce the risk of contamination. Additionally, cross-contamination from these meats to other foods can also spread harmful bacteria.
