Refreshments were served following the meeting. one out of every five recorded parrot fever cases resulted in death. Treatment today usually consists of rest in bed with doses of antibiotics. Doctors at the Uni» versity of Texas Medical Branch reported that treatment with terramycin led to recovery of two psittacosis patients within three days. Sparrows, pigeons and ducks can also carry the disease, and the birds need not be infected themselves in order to spread the virus that causes the fever. People can catch the illness by close association with these feathered friends or by direct contact with them. A warning was issued recently by the Medical Society of New Jersey against kissing parrots or parakeets or allowing these pets to take food from one's lips. Some kisses, the medical society admitted, are undoubtedly worth running a risk to enjoy. Kissing birds, however, should be left to other birds.
