These outbreaks resulted in 3646 cases of illness, 286 hospitalizations, and 13 deaths; all deaths were due to Legionella infection. Most outbreaks began between June and August each year, suggesting that solid organ transplant candidates and recipients should be mindful of the risks associated with public recreational water, particularly during the summer months.
