“…It was suggested that conditions associated with hypochlorhydria as in HIV/AIDS, predisposes to gastric cryptosporidial colonization [43] . However, gastric cryptosporidiosis was also reported in immunocompetent patients [44,45] . A small infectious dose of 10-30 oocysts was implicated in the possibility of infection among immunocompetent individuals [46] .…”
