A member asked:

Sneezing in friends home in india. can this be ornithosis/parrot fever?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Simon Tsiouris answered

Probably not: Ornithosis (a.K.A. Psittacosis) usually causes fever associated with malaise, headache and cough. Sneezing alone would not be suggestive of this diagnosis.

Dr Brown agreed
