§ Mr. SackvilleThe number of laboratory reports of toxoplasmosis in England and Wales during the past 10 years is shown in the table. It should be noted that those reports are not necessarily of new infections; some may be of chronic infection or represent results from repeat test on the same patient.
Information on the incidence of congenital toxoplasmosis each year is not routinely available.
