Board Of Health Releases Parma Legionnaires Report

(Parma)  --  There's an update on the outbreak of Legionnaire's disease outbreak that happened in Parma earlier this year.  The Cuyahoga County Board of Health says in its final report Wednesday it's likely that the illness was living in the cooling system at St. Columbkille Parish.  Eleven cases of the sickness that affects the lungs were reported over the summer and a 93-year-old woman died after getting infected.  Since the cooling system at the church was changed in July, no one has gotten sick.   https://www.cdc.gov/about/facts/cdcfastfacts/legionnaires.html
