Researchers have discovered that an apparently innocuous feline parasite can be dangerous to human health.
"Toxoplasma gondii" is the name of a parasite that often spreads to cats. Previously, there was the badumption that this is actually quite harmless to the animal and also represents no danger to humans. But the researchers came to a very different conclusion
The parasite can change its personality
According to "focus.de", about a third of people in Germany are affected by the parasite. And that can have very bad consequences for those affected. For the "Toxoplasma gondii" is able to transmit toxoplasmosis disease, which in turn can infect organs and even the human brain. By hiding in cells, parasites can cross the blood-brain barrier, which should protect the brain from infection. Once they have arrived at this point, this can have very bad consequences. Due to the process, it is possible that the personality of the affected person has changed permanently!

Dog Disease Through Tick Bites
Shock to All Animal Owners
It's the Nightmare of All Dog Owners : just now, the faithful companion has jumped happily through the woods and meadows – suddenly, he struggles with life. But that's exactly what dog owners in Germany fear. Because a dramatic illness is currently threatening our four-legged friends. That is why animal lovers should know the following facts about malaria in dogs …
The researchers found this from a study of 131 elderly people. However, other studies have revealed this frightening achievement: people with toxoplasmosis are twice as likely to present with schizophrenia as uninfected people.
Flu symptoms
Cat owners should be cautious. Because the parasite first installs in the animal's gut and is then removed with the feces. In contrast, humans serve the parasite as an intermediate host. If the person has been infected with toxoplasmosis, it usually manifests as flu-like symptoms. In such cases, a doctor should be consulted immediately. [19659025]
