Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic infection caused by the Toxoplasma gondii parasite, which can be found in soil contaminated with cat feces or undercooked meat. If a pregnant woman becomes infected, the parasite can cross the placenta and cause developmental problems or miscarriage in the fetus. Herpes virus and HIV can also cause developmental problems in the fetus, but they are primarily transmitted through other means and not associated with soil or undercooked meat. Alcohol can also cause developmental problems in the fetus, but it is not a pathogen. Rubella can cause birth defects, but it is not commonly found in soil, cat feces, or undercooked meat.
