“…15 Chlamydia psittaci infection can invade the placenta and infect the fetus from around 60 days gestation, but pathological changes in the placenta do not commence until after 90 days gestation. 7 Infection with abortifacient agents such as T. gondii and C. psittaci induce a strong immunological response in the ovine fetus, 27 and the fetus becomes immunocompetent at around the same time as placental invasion begins. 28 Although the fetus may be aborted before an antibody response develops, the results of this study indicate that a fetus can be infected and have time to mount an immune response before abortion.…”
