Avoid smokes, dust, dry air, sudden temperature change The earlier the illness is treated with antibiotic medication, the better the likely outcome. The illness is serious and can be fatal, but it is not contagious The source of the germs (bacteria) in an outbreak is usually a man-made water distribution system where the bacteria have multiplied in great numbers. Warm storage tanks where the water stagnates are ideal for legionella bacteria to multiply. The bacteria thrive in water temperatures between 25°C and 45°C - about 35°C is the optimum temperature. This means that Legionnaires' disease can be caught from: a. Piped water especially hot water, in large buildings where long runs of pipe work can be a source of the bacteria. b. Circulating water droplets in air-conditioning and cooling systems, cooling towers and evaporative condensers. c. Whirlpool spas d. Nebulizers and humidifiers (including some types of breathing equipment) if topped up with contaminated tap water Sources where temperatures allow the bacteria to thrive include hot-water tanks, cooling towers and evaporative condensers of large air-conditioning systems such as those commonly found in hotels and large office buildings.
