Redstone Arsenal confirms case of Legionnaire's Disease

[Marianne]

This is in Huntsville, AL. A 64 yo man died Monday from Legionnaire's Disease after being ill several days. The Army is testing others who worked in the same building and who have respiratory symptoms. They are saying no bacteria was found in the building he worked in. LD is thought to be spread through air, not person to person.

Hopefully this is an isolated case, but the source of legionella bacteria is not known.

So am I, Conk. I don't know anyone personally in that building, but my brother works somewhere on the arsenal.
