LEGIONELLA: Implications for building management

Abstract

As another major outbreak of Legionnaires' disease makes the headlines with the recent case at the BBC's London headquarters, fears and uncertainties — and some misconceptions — have hit the public at large. The risk of legionella can be reduced to a negligible factor, but a careless slip by a designer, contractor, and particularly by maintenance management and technicians, can prove how fragile our defences against the disease are.
