To the Editor: The European Working Group for Legionella Infections (EWGLINET) conducts epidemiologic surveillance of Legionnaires' disease cases associated with travel (1) and provides epidemiologic typing markers of Legionella pneumophila among reference laboratories in collaborating countries. Well known among those pathogens are Legionella pneumophila bacteria, which cause Legionnaires' disease. Intensive care units in hospitals are also using silver to purify water, and hotels find that silver kills the pathogen that leads to Legionnaires' Disease. |
