In this study, we fully characterized the Dutch clinical isolate of APMV-1-like virus, determined its phylogenetic relationship to other APMV-1 strains, and correlated presence of this virus with lesions in tissues obtained from the patient at autopsy. Domestic pigeons were inoculated intratracheally with the Dutch clinical virus isolate to determine infectivity and transmissibility, clinical signs, and pathological changes (Supplementary Methods). This is consistent with the New York case, where evidence of PPMV-1 infection in feces and urine also suggested extrarespiratory Pigeon Paramyxovirus-Linked Pneumonia • JID 2018:218 (1 October) • 1041 Table 1 spread [11] . It is relevant for these PPMV-1 cases that the risk of 2 pigeon-associated diseases-chlamydiosis and cryptococcosis-was largely a function of the immune status of patients, rather than contact with infected birds [32, 33] . ./cache/cord-350201-tluc2ck7.txt ./txt/cord-350201-tluc2ck7.txt
