Abstract
More than 110 people, including 12 newborns, were infected with Toxoplasma gondii in Victoria last year. A team of doctors, researchers and public-health officials determined that the source of the world's largest recorded outbreak of the infection was the water supply. Anne Mullens looks at how the BC medical and scientific communities responded to a unique challenge.
