Au total, 108 cas ont \u00e9t\u00e9 confirm\u00e9s dans ce quartier, a soulign\u00e9 le d\u00e9partement de la sant\u00e9 de la ville de New York, pr\u00e9cisant que des tours de refroidissement de climatisation avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 test\u00e9es positives \u00e0 cette bact\u00e9rie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La l\u00e9gionellose est une infection pulmonaire grave, due \u00e0 la bact\u00e9rie legionella, avec un taux de l\u00e9talit\u00e9 de 9%. La contamination peut se faire via de l’eau ou par voie respiratoire, via des micro-gouttelettes en suspension dans l’air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La maladie n’est pas contagieuse de personne \u00e0 personne. Le d\u00e9partement de la sant\u00e9 de la ville de New York a rappel\u00e9 les propri\u00e9taires d’immeubles \u00e0 leur obligation de veiller au bon entretien de leurs syst\u00e8mes de climatisation afin d’emp\u00eacher la bact\u00e9rie de prolif\u00e9rer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La maladie tire son nom des premiers cas connus, qui s’\u00e9taient d\u00e9clar\u00e9s en 1976 dans un h\u00f4tel de Philadelphie o\u00f9 l’association des anciens combattants de l’American Legion tenait une conf\u00e9rence. Trente-quatre personnes \u00e9taient alors d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9es.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
