Protozoan Toxoplasma gondii an Infection Found all Over the Globe

Abdul Rahman

Toxoplasmosis, a condition caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii and affecting the retina, is a natural occurrence. Because of the degree of central nervous system involvement, the condition has a greater effect in immune compromised persons and in congenital infection. T. gondii seroprevalence is still strong, particularly in South America, despite easy prophylactic steps that could minimise transmission. Education programmes and the advancement of new medications to deter primary infection may help to lessen the disease's effect.
