Sciensano & Psittacosis

Last updated on 22-2-2023 by Charlien Hupko

The role of Sciensano’s service Epidemiology of infectious diseases is to:

  • describe the epidemiology of psittacosis in Belgium (in terms of age, gender, geographical location and source of infection)
  • follow-up trends over time
  • identify possible risk factors

Data are collected by the Reference laboratory at the University of Ghent, the network of sentinel laboratories and through the mandatory notifications in the regions. 

We present the surveillance results in a yearly report (see the section ‘Other publications’ below).
