Over half of adults in the U.S. have been infected with the virus by age 40. Most healthy people don’t know that they have CMV because it doesn’t usually cause any symptoms or harmful effects. However, if you are pregnant and have CMV, the virus can pass through the placenta to your growing fetus. When a baby is born with CMV, it is known as congenital CMV. Congenital CMV can be serious and may harm the brain, eyes, or inner ears of some babies infected before birth.
