Legionnaires' disease on symptom onset dates from past outbreaks. In this way, the eventual likely size of an outbreak can be predicted, enabling efficient and effective use of public health resources in managing an outbreak. The first recognized cases of Legionnaires' disease occurred in 1976 in Philadelphia; among more than 2000 attendees of an American Legion convention held at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel, 182 attendees contracted the disease and 29 of them died. In April 1985, 175 people in Stafford, England, were admitted to the District or Kingsmead Stafford Hospitals with chest infection or pneumonia. A total of 28 people died. Medical diagnosis
Hospital-acquired pneumonia hospitals and critical care units' Common bacterial pathogens include aerobic GNB, such as "Pseudomonas aeruginosa", "Acinetobacter baumanii", "Klebsiella pneumoniae", "Escherichia coli" as well as gram-positive organisms such as "Staphylococcus aureus". In patients with an early onset pneumonia (within 5 days of hospitalization), they are usually due to anti microbial-sensitive bacteria such as "Enterobacter" spp, "E. coli", "Klebsiella" spp, "Proteus" spp, "Serratia mare scans", community pathogens such as "Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae", and methicillin-sensitive "S. aureus" should also be considered. Pneumonia that starts in the hospital tends to be more serious than other lung infections because: people in the hospital are
