Parasites are the main concern with pork. Antibiotics won't help you with those. But they test the meat very carefully in Germany.

The testing is just to make sure. Trichinella is basically a non-issue everywhere in the western world (including the US with a lack of regulation on the producer side), simply because animal farming is so highly industrialized that those pigs in their sterile little boxes don't have the chance to eat animals and get infected. The main vector for those parasite infections are amateur hunters fucking up and not properly cooking their meat.
