What Is Parrot Fever? Parrot fever, also called parrot disease and psittacosis, is very rare. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there have been fewer than 50 confirmed cases per year in the United States since 1996, although many cases may have gone undiagnosed or unreported (CDC).
Bird flu is highly contagious, and can infect all types of birds. Wild birds, especially water birds such as ducks, are the natural hosts of the virus. They often have no symptoms or only mild disease, but can pass the infection to domesticated birds (such as chickens and turkeys), who can develop severe disease.uman infections with bird flu are not common, but it is possible for people to catch bird flu from infected poultry or surfaces contaminated with droppings, saliva or feathers from infected birds. Human cases of bird flu generally coincide with outbreaks in poultry.
