Answer- A. Toxoplasmosis
- Toxoplasmosis results from infection with a common parasite found in cat faeces and contaminated food. It can cause serious complications for pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems. Symptoms include muscle pain, fever, and headache, all of which can last for weeks.
Toxoplasmosis is especially serious for people who have weakened immune systems. For these people, they’re at risk of developing:
- brain inflammation, causing headaches, seizures, confusion and coma.
- a lung infection, causing cough, fever, and shortness of breath
- an eye infection, causing blurry vision and eye pain
