Legionnaires’ disease in Switzerland: Rationale and study protocol of a prospective national case-control and molecular source attribution study (<i>SwissLEGIO</i>)

2022-10-22

Abstract excerpt

Switzerland has one of the highest annual Legionnaires’ disease (LD) notification rates in Europe (7.8 cases/ 100,000 population in 2021). The main sources of infection and the cause for this high rate remain largely unknown. This hampers the implementation of targeted Legionella spp. control efforts. The SwissLEGIO national case-control and molecular source attribution study investigates risk factors and infectio...
