|
In
the course of its normal surveillance activities, EWGLINET
detects many clusters of legionnaires' disease cases each
year, at accommodation sites throughout Europe and beyond. |
|
| |
|
When
a cluster is detected within a country which has agreed
to follow the European
Guidelines, collaborators are expected to report
on investigations conducted to deal with these clusters.
Usually these reports are submitted on time and show that
adequate steps have been taken to control the risk of further
legionella infection at these sites in the future. |
|
| |
|
Occasionally
however, the report will either not be submitted by the
required deadline, or will not convincingly show that the
required standard of remedial action has been met. In these
situations, the name of the accommodation site is published
on this page of the EWGLI website. It will be removed only
when a new report is received demonstrating that adequate
control measures have been implemented and steps have been
taken to minimize the risk of further cases occurring.

Points
to note: |
|
| |
|
1.
This is not a complete list of clusters detected by EWGLINET.
It is a list of the current accommodation sites within countries
operating the European Guidelines where we are unable to
assess the risk of legionella infection, or where we believe
there may be increased risk to travellers. |
|
| |
|
2.
This list will never include accommodation sites in countries
which are not signatories to the European Guidelines. Since
EWGLINET has no way to verify the actions taken in these
countries, we can offer no comment on the risk status of
accommodation sites there. |
