Absolutely. My understanding is up to 30 or 40 years, which means that some of the people I know who have it found out in middle age in spite of POSSIBLY being exposed to it as children. Personally, I believe that many Vietnam vets contracted it in the 60s, and did not show symptoms until years later. If you know of anyone who fits this description, I'd love to hear back. Of course, the U.S. denies that caves and droppings over there played a role, and no one is accumulating data. From "Someone who knows more about histo than anyone would want to"
