弓形虫病是由弓形虫引起的人类和其他温血动物最常见的寄生虫感染之一。从阿拉斯加到澳大利亚都有分布。近三分之一的人类接触过这种寄生虫。在大多数成年人中，它不会引起严重的疾病，但它会导致先天性感染儿童的失明和智力迟钝，以及免疫功能低下个体的毁灭性疾病。
Toxoplasmosis, caused by the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii , is one of the most common parasitic infections of man and other warm-blooded animals. It has been found world-wide from Alaska to Australia. Nearly one-third of humanity has been exposed to this parasite. In most adults it does not cause serious illness, but it can cause blindness and mental retardation in congenitally infected children and devastating disease in immunocompromised individuals.
