Fetal transmission occurs in 40% of cases where primary maternal infection is acquired during pregnancy. Long term disability can occur with mental retardation and blindness. Overall mortality can be as high as 12%.
You may consult a gynecologist for a opinion but the decision to terminate the pregnancy should be taken by you based upon the risk assessment.
