What is Legionella?

Legionella is a type of bacteria that can cause Legionnaires’ Disease, a potentially fatal form of pneumonia. The bacterium is found in natural water sources, such as lakes and rivers. It can also thrive in artificial water systems, such as cooling towers, hot tubs, and showerheads.

People can become infected with legionella when they breathe in water droplets that contain the bacteria. The droplets can come from showerheads, faucets, or other water sources. The disease can also be contracted by drinking water that contains the bacteria.

Legionella FAQs

The symptoms of Legionnaires’ Disease include chills, fever, cough, and muscle aches. The illness can also cause headaches, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea.

In severe cases, Legionnaires’ Disease can lead to pneumonia and death. Legionnaires’ disease usually develops within 2 to 10 days after exposure to the bacteria.

Anyone can get Legionnaires’ Disease, but some people are at a higher risk. These include:

  • People 50 years of age or older
  • Smokers
  • Heavy drinkers
  • People with chronic lung diseases, such as emphysema
  • People with weakened immune systems

If you are at a higher risk for Legionnaires’ Disease, talk to your doctor to see if you should take steps to prevent or treat the disease.

At present, there is no vaccine to stop and combat Legionnaires’ Disease. The best way to prevent the disease is to avoid exposure to the bacteria. If you own or operate a water system, you should take steps to control Legionella bacteria. These steps include:

  • Keeping the water clean and free of dirt and debris
  • Testing the water for Legionella bacteria
  • Treating the water to prevent the growth of bacteria
  • Regularly maintaining and cleaning the system
