Congenital toxoplasmosis: a prospective survey in the West of Scotland.

Summary A prospective survey of antenatal patients in Glasgow over the years 1975–1977 to assess the incidence of congenital toxoplasmosis in Scotland suggests that this is not less than one in 2000 births. This is higher than previous estimates for the U.K. and may make the costing of preventive programmes justifiable.
