Cryptococcus neoformans in pigeon feces in San Francisco

C Halde et al. Calif Med. 1966 Mar.

Abstract

Typical Cryptococcus neoformans was isolated from one of 10 specimens of pigeon feces collected in downtown San Francisco. This isolation from a small sample suggests considerable prevalence of this important pathogen and tends to confirm that it is ubiquitous.
