This month, Dr. Kimothy Smith and Christian Railsback explore a well-known pathogen to healthcare facilities worldwide, Legionella pneumophila (Lp). Premise plumbing systems serve as the coziest of homes to this harmful and sometimes deadly bug, making routine biosurveillance efforts a must. Our hosts take a deep dive into the metabolic and cellular composition, preferred habitats, harmful effects, and preventative measures of Legionella pneumophila. A transcript of the conversation appears below.
