Yes, healthy people hardly ever notice the disease. However, the infection can have serious consequences for them if their immune system is weakened, for example if they have an organ transplant or if they contract AIDS. The parasite can then become active again and cause brain inflammation.
If the mother becomes infected with this pathogen during pregnancy, it can be transmitted to the unborn child, and the unborn child also becomes infected and suffers developmental disorders. This leads to the unborn child being born deformed or a miscarriage occurring.
25% of the world’s population has toxoplasmosis. The main distribution vector is cats. That’s why we all love cats!
Do Germans love cats twice as much, or can we assume raw pork is also a factor?
It doesn’t matter as it doesn’t hurt anyone in any way, shape or form.
Incorrect.

Cool story. But again, 25% of all population are infected. And side effects are pretty much non existent.
50% of people in (East?) Germany, and I listed the existing serious effects above.
If it was even remotely serious, Germans would do something about it. But it’s not.
It is serious.
