AB Legionellosis  refers  to  the  two  clinical  syndromes  caused  by  bacteria  of  the  genus  Legionella.  Pontiac  fever  is  an  acute,  febrile,  self-limited  illness  that  has  been  serologically  linked  to  Legionella  species,  whereas  Legionnaires’  disease  is  the  designation  for  pneumonia  caused  by  these  species.  Legionnaires’  disease  was  first  recognized  in  1976,  when  an  outbreak  of  pneumonia  took  place  at  a  Philadelphia  hotel  during  an  American  Legion  convention.
