Toksoplasmose

Toksoplasmose skyldes parasitten Toxoplasma gondii som finnes over hele verden. Mange mennesker har vært smittet, de fleste uten å vite om det, fordi tilstanden er uten symptomer i 80-90 prosent av tilfellene. Forekomsten i Norge er imidlertid langt mindre, rundt ti prosent.

Det viktigste reservoar for parasitten er katter. Gravide kvinner som tidligere ikke har vært smittet med toksoplasmose, bør utvise spesiell forsiktighet for å unngå infeksjon
