NYC Legionnaires is linked to two buildings, including Harlem Hospital

New York (AP)-New York City Hospital and another building managed by the city were sources of the outbreak of the Legion’s disease in Harlem, who killed seven people and patients of dozens of others.

The Ministry of Health in New York City said that bacteria are from the refrigeration towers over Harlam Hospital and a near construction site, where the city’s public health laboratory is located from some patients with patients.

The agency said that they consider that the bacterial group has officially ended since the last day when anyone reported the symptoms of Legion’s disease three weeks ago on August 9. Since the outbreak of the disease, seven people have died and 114 people have been diagnosed with the Corps, while there are six people in the hospital.

People usually develop symptoms – coughing, fever, headache, muscle pain and shortness of breath – between two and two weeks after exposure to bacteria, according to the American centers to control diseases and prevent them.

City health officials said that all the facilities in the affected area had cleaned and cleared their cooling towers.

They are also thinking about a series of changes to try to prevent the outbreak of the future. Among them they require building owners to test the Legion every 30 days instead of 90 days and increase fines due to violations of failure to comply with the local cooling tower systems.

Friday’s announcement came a day after the seventh person, who died earlier this month, was part of the group.

Meanwhile, a number of survivors passed out the outbreak of fascism.

Lawyers who represent two workers at the affected construction site said they believe that the unenviable rain water is one of the last storms in the cooling towers led to the outbreak of the disease.

Ron Catter, a lawyer who represents two other victims, said the Friday announcement was “very few, very late.”

He said: “These deaths and disease were preventable. It is clear that the laws of the city’s cooling tower are not effective,” noting that Harlem Hospital was linked to the outbreak of one of the Corps in 2021.

The Ministry of Health refused to comment on Friday.

Legionnaires is a type of pneumonia caused by Legion bacteria, which flourish in warm water and usually spreads through contaminated fog.

Medical researchers linked the city to the city with public fountains, air conditioning systems, resorts, bathing and even disabled instead of maintaining fruit moisture in supermarkets. People who simply walk can inhale the fog, which can travel to a mile, under some circumstances.

In 2015, the city’s and state officials enacted the regulations that require the construction, testing and inspection of the cooling towers after a fatal outbreak in the city.
