Detection of Chlamydiaceae in Swiss wild birds sampled at a bird rehabilitation centre

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background Annually, 800–1500 wild birds are admitted to the rehabilitation centre of the Swiss Ornithological Institute, Sempach, Lucerne, Switzerland. The workers of the centre come in close contact with the avian patients and might therefore be exposed to zoonotic agents shed by these birds, such as Chlamydia psittaci.
