The prevalence of CMV antibody in various groups of Thai population was studied. Pregnant women and young children had been infected with CMV more than the other studied groups. Children of both sex had equal chance of getting CMV infection while the risk of CMV infection in adult between male and female was significantly difference (p < 0.001). Pregnant women had higher chance to get CMV infection than normal women. Prevalence of CMV antibody at present was similar to previous studies.
