Psittacosis

Psittacosis, also known as parrot fever or ornithosis, is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by the bacterium Chlamydia psittaci. Birds are the main reservoir, and human infection usually follows inhalation of aerosolised dried droppings or respiratory secretions from infected birds. Although many human infections are mild, psittacosis can cause pneumonia and occasionally severe complications including endocarditis, hepatitis, and neurologic disease.
