NYC Health Department Investigating
Community Cluster of Legionnaires'
Disease in the South Bronx

Today, the NYC Health Department has launched
an investigation into a likely community cluster of
Legionnaires' disease in parts of the Melrose and
Morrisania neighborhoods of the South Bronx (ZIP
codes 10451 and 10456).

As of September 10, five people have been
diagnosed with Legionnaires' disease in the area,
and results for other potential cases are currently
pending.

Sadly, one person associated with this cluster has
died.
Any New Yorkers who currently live or work in the
two ZIP codes or people who have visited the area
since late August and are experiencing flu-like
symptoms, such as fever, cough, or difficulty
breathing, should contact a healthcare provider
immediately.

People only get sick by breathing in water vapor
containing Legionella bacteria in the outside air.
Symptoms resemble other types of pneumonia
and can include fever, chills, muscle aches, and
cough. Legionnaires' disease is not contagious and
can be treated with antibiotics when caught early.
It is safe to use your air conditioner, shower, and
drink tap water.

For help finding a provider, regardless of
immigration or insurance status, call 311 or
844-NYC-4NYC (844-692-4692).

As respiratory virus season approaches, we and @HealthNYGov recommend New Yorkers roll up their sleeves for flu, RSV, and COVID-19 vaccines. Immunization is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself from getting sick this respiratory virus season: https://t.co/ilpXwnRnyE
Text reads: New York City and New York State Health Departments Endorse 2026-2027 Respiratory Virus Season Immunization Recommendations. Today, the New York City Health Department and the New York State Department of Health announced their endorsement of recommendations for flu, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and COVID-19 immunizations ahead of respiratory virus season. New York City and New York State health officials encourage healthcare providers to follow the Respiratory Virus Immunization Recommendations released by the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and Infectious Diseases Society of America, in collaboration with the American Medical Association and the Vaccine Integrity Project. These recommendations are based on peer-reviewed scientific data from nearly 300 studies and represent evidence-based medicine. N Y C Health logo.
