Now, if your question is what CAN they POSSIBLY carry to humans as vectors, then there is a minor chance of ornithosis (as can all birds to people).
Huge amounts of pigeon droppings (as in all droppings) can, if wet, have a fungus which grows on them and this fungus, if you breathe the spores, can infect lung tissue.
