Facts about CMV/HSV/Syphilis

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.

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

CMV is a member of the herpesvirus family, which includes herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2, varicella-zoster virus, and Epstein-Barr virus.

CMV testing should be done within 2-3 weeks of birth to determine if it is congenital.
