Hasn't it been well known for a long time that they are doing this? I remember my cousin 10+ years ago being told to get rid of her cat while she was pregnant due to this.

Most people won't be effected by it, I can't see the big deal.

 

[PermaBanned]

Yeah, this isn't news...

shocker as animals are not as hygenic as humans

it wouldnt surprise me if every single kind of animal thats kept as a pet has at least one disease that can be passed to humans

 

[Spit]

OMG handling cat poo can give you a parasite shocker!

 

[Destination]

Yeah, this isn't news...

Its been happening for centuries....
Don't let your kids play in sand pits if you own a cat, toxo scars on the back of eyes are common, but reactivations can lead to blindness and you'll never know.

This is hardly anything new. Thanks, Sky, for the informative article.
