Quantitative microbial risk assessment of Legionella pneumophila in a drinking water distribution system: A case study

The findings suggest that existing water management practices may be inadequate for controlling <i>Legionella</i> growth and transmission. Seasonal variations significantly impact infection risk, emphasizing the need for improved monitoring and control strategies. However, limitations related to sampling methodology, geographic specificity, and dose-response modeling should be considered when interpreting the results.
