Thomas said this week that initial testing last November found unacceptable levels of the bacterium legionella in the building’s water supply.
“The initial test was performed on Nov. 6,” he said. “We got the results back approximately two to three weeks after that and they discovered they they had some pretty high levels.”
Of the 19 sites tested within the building, two showed no signs of the bacterium, Thomas said, but several were above the threshold of 10 colony-forming units, or CFU’s, established by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration. CFU provides an estimate of the number of viable bacteria cells in a given sample.

Legionella migrates,as will be discovered in the near future.With all of the geniuses out there,why can't anyone understand that bacterium of all descriptions has an intellect? I keep forgetting that I'm in the 21st century,where only human beings are supposed to have any sense at all.
The headline is false. When you have an outbreak, all of your tests must be negative to be considered legionella free. They are still required to test at regular intervals until all testing sites are negative. Golden Sands is still required to notify renters.
Can we get Hillary Clinton to come and stay really soon?
