Abstract
Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks are a significant public health challenge, frequently stemming from contaminated aerosolizing water systems. Investigations reveal cooling towers in urban, industrial, and regional settings as common sources, alongside health care facilities and recreational spas. Effective outbreak control necessitates robust epidemiological and environmental investigations, rapid source identification, stringent water management, and prompt public health communication. Advanced molecular techniques aid in source attribution, while evolving research suggests climate change may influence future Legionella proliferation. Proactive surveillance and adaptive strategies are crucial for mitigating this widespread infectious disease.
