About Legionella

Legionella is a gram-negative bacterium that often lives in still, warm water, but can survive under a wide range of temperatures and conditions. It can cause two diseases, Pontiac fever and Legionnaires' disease, collectively known as legionellosis. The majority of cases of legionellosis are caused by infection by Legionella pneumophila.
