Facts about CMV/HSV/Syphilis

About 15% of babies with congenital CMV will not have signs at birth but will later develop hearing loss.

Five tips to help prevent CMV: do not share food/utensils/drinks, do not put a pacifier in your mouth, avoid contact with saliva when kissing a child, do not share a toothbrush, wash your hands.

A positive test for CMV IgG indicates that a person was infected with CMV at some time during their life but does not indicate when a person was infected.

There are currently no vaccines for CMV.
