Incidence of Legionnaires' disease in a district general hospital.

A R Atkinson, R J White, S K Clarke, A D Blainey.   

Abstract

In order to assess the incidence of Legionnaires' disease in a district general hospital, 90 consecutive patients with pneumonia seen over a 3-year period were investigated. Only 2 patients were found to have Legionnaires' disease, indicating that it is not a frequent cause of pneumonia in the Bristol area.
