Cytomegalovirus is the most common intrauterine infection, whose clinical manifestations are associated with the immune status of the host.

Hence, no intervention policy for the prevention and control of CMV infections. With the high prevalence of cytomegalovirus infection identified in this study, it's obvious that most fetuses are at risk of neurological problems ranging from Sensoneural hearing loss, learning difficulties and varying degrees of congenital malformations. Adults predisposed to conditions of immunosuppression will likely suffer the consequences of CMV infection, reinfection and reactivation of latent infections.
