Sparrows from central Poland were examined by a hemagglutination-inhibition test (titer > or = 20) for the presence of antibodies to arboviruses, between 1995 and 1996. In house sparrows (Passer domesticus) (n = 179), antibodies to Sindbis, West Nile, tick-borne encephalitis, Tahyna, and Calovo viruses were detected at seroprevalences of 1.1%, 2.8%, 1.1%, 2.8%, and 1.1%, respectively. In tree sparrows (P. montanus) (n = 33), antibodies to the Sindbis, West Nile, and Tahyna viruses were detected at seroprevalences of 9.1%, 12.1%, and 3.0%, respectively.

Synanthropic sparrows in Poland and the Czech Republic were tested for Toxoplasma gondii antibodies by an indirect fluorescent antibody test (titre>/=10). T. gondii antibodies were demonstrated in 12.3% of 227 house sparrows (Passer domesticus) and 4.9% of 41 tree sparrows (Passer montanus).
