Nosocomial (Health Care-Associated) Legionnaire's Disease.
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America 2017 March
Nosocomial Legionnaire's disease is most frequently associated with presence of the organism in hospital water systems. Patients are often susceptible as a result of age, underlying comorbidities, or immunosuppression.
