High levels of Legionella bacteria were found in a cooling tower at Embassy Suites Napa Valley, though none of the patients had visited the hotel.
In what became one of the nation’s biggest Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks, 22 people fell sick with the dangerous lung infection last fall in Orange County, including one who died.Investigators with Napa County Public Health, the California Department of Public Health and the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are working to identify any additional sources of water that might contain the bacteria in unsafe amounts, officials said.
Authorities warned county residents and people living or working in Napa who have flu-like symptoms, cough, fever or difficulty breathing to contact their healthcare provider as soon as possible.
