TL;DR: The emergence of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and AIDS-related infections promoted interest in cryptosporidiosis in 1982, and the prevalence of the infection in the general population became apparent with the publication of the first epidemiological studies.
Abstract: Cryptosporidium is a protozoan parasite in the subclass Coccidia which completes its life cycle on epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract and less frequently in the respiratory tract. Although Cryptosporidium has been known since the turn of the century, the recognition of the infection in humans is fairly recent, with the first two cases described in 1976.',' By 1979 further cases were described in individuals with some clinical evidence of acquired3s4 or congenital5 immunodeficiency. Cryptosporidiosis in these patients was confirmed by histological examination of intestinal biopsies. The first case of cryptosporidiosis in an immunocompetent adult, who suffered severe, watery, but self-limited diarrhoea and vomiting, was described shortly after, in 1 980.6 This patient was the first in whom the diagnosis was made by detection of oocysts in faecal smears. The transmission of this human isolate to other animals not only showed that it was biologically indistinguishable from Cryptosporidiurn of other mammals, but also indicated indirectly the zoonotic potential of this para~ite.

The prevalence of the infection in the general population became apparent with the publication of the first epidemiological studies in 1 983.'0,\" The zoonotic potential of cryptosporidiosis was confirmed by accidental infections of animal handlers who had close contact with infected calve^.^^^^^ The early epidemiological studies were followed by numerous reports from around the globe.
