Zoonotic Chlamydophila psittaci Infections From a Clinical Perspective [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009 Human psittacosis is a zoonotic infectious disease which is caused by the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydophila psittaci. Transmission of the disease usually originates from close contact with infected birds, most frequently in the context of the poultry industry, and from contact with Psittaciformes (cockatoos, parrots, parakeets and lories).
