Abstract
Antibodies to Legionella pneumophila were found by indirect immunofluorescence assay in 525 samples of human serum. The samples were obtained from 451 patients who were suspected of having an acute infectious illness, with mainly respiratory symptoms; 90 patients had antibodies to L. pneumophila (19.9%). The results suggest that the prevalence of L. pneumophila is greater than had previously been supposed.
