: It's one of those critters that follows the fecal/oral route of contamination, so people get it from drinking water contaminated with fecal matter, or by practicing poor hygiene when handling animals, changing diapers of an infected baby, etc.

: It's one of the nasty critters that can sicken humans nearly as easily as herps if the immune system is compromised.

: In the situation in SC, a 7 year old girl is in the hospital with crypto after both her grandmother and parents bought leopard geckos that died almost as soon as they were brought home.
