The Epic Miami Condo Hotel and Residence building is seen after about 300 guests were relocated due to a legionnaires' disease outbreak in the building on December 14, 2009 in Miami, Florida.
The people were relocated after one guest died and at least two others became sick since October from the disease. An investigation last week by county and state officials revealed that the hotel had installed a water filter that remove chlorine from its city-supplied water which may have allowed bacterial growth.
hospitals and other institutions such as prisons have always had higher incidences of legionella
