Epidemiological analysis of Legionnaires' disease in Scotland: a genomic study

11 Oct 2022

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Legionella pneumophila is the main cause of a severe pneumonic illness known as Legionnaires' disease and is a global public health threat. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can be applied to trace environmental origins of L pneumophila infections, providing information to guide appropriate interventions. We aim to explore the evolutionary and epidemiological relationships in a 36-year Scottish L...
