- Abstract
Toxoplasma is one of the most widespread zoonotic pathogens in the world. Recent studies focused on this agent show that it may be responsible for the emergence of several different health problems. One approach includes collaborative activities of medical and veterinary sciences, and needs to review consumption of raw meat, vegetables and fruits, hand hygiene and animal feeding habits, taking account of socio-cultural structures of each country and each region for reducing and controlling of zoonotic diseases such as Toxoplasma and protecting against these diseases. The present study presents current data related to the epidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii which is an important but also neglected pathogen/ agent in many regions in Turkey and the world and also to review protective public health approaches to the prevention and control of infections.
