No Showers, but Tenants at Legionella-Affected East Village Complex Are Steamed
Haven Plaza, an affordable housing development, has had the deadly Legionella bacteria in its water system since May. The city’s health commissioner announced a seventh Legionnaires’ death on the Upper East Sidehttps://www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/07/30/east-village-legionella-tenants-upper-east-side/

@cynical13 Let's hope there are no bugs in the water though.

Jätettääkö?
"Hän epäilee, että tartunta oli peräisin aivan naapurissa sijaitsevasta Loviisan satamasta. Siellä säilytettiin ja käsiteltiin tuohon aikaan runsaasti ulkomailta tulleita jätepaaleja avonaisilla ulkoalueilla."

Our new research project MicroSafe focuses on the impact of climate change on microbial growth in wet cooling towers. The research focuses on the spread of pathogenic microorganisms, such as Legionella, from wet cooling towers. The Netherlands has at least 4,000 of these cooling towers, which are used for cooling buildings and industrial installations. Due to climate change and higher temperatures, the risk of pathogen spread may increase. https://www.ru.nl/en/research/research-news/nwo-funding-for-research-project-on-the-effects-of-climate-change-on-microbial-growth-in-cooling-towers

@mboelen en @josgeluk : strooming.nl wordt momenteel gehost op 76.76.21.21, een Amazon server met *duizenden* websites waaronder veel scamsites (mogelijk een proxy, zie https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/76.76.21.21/relations - open het RELATIONS tabblad als dat niet vanzelf gaat).
www.strooming.nl zat eerder achter Cloudflare's afvalputje (188.114.96.*) nl. op 188.114.96.2 (https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/188.114.96.2/relations). Dat is waar Cloudflare sites naar toe verplaatst bij veel klachten.
Momenteel zit www.strooming.nl achter 104.21.53.240 (mirror: 172.67.220.76): https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/104.21.53.240/relations. De laatst gecheckte domeinnamen (websitenamen) op 104.21.53.240 voorspellen al niet veel goeds (zie screenshot).
Certificaten: https://crt.sh/?q=strooming.nl
Een kort onderzoekje wees uit dat infodwi.nl wél legitiem lijkt (met een totaal ongeloofwaardige domeinnaam).
Kennelijk heeft onze overheid op 1-1-2024 een nieuw drinkwaterbesluit genomen - dat in elk geval *instellingen* (zoals verpleeghuizen) verplicht tot controles, zie https://wetten.overheid.nl/BWBR0030166/2024-01-01.
Of terugstroombeveiligingen in woningen jaarlijks moeten worden gecheckt, heb ik nog niet kunnen vinden (ik zoek nog even verder).

Sairastuttaako?
"... jätepaaleissa esiintyy todennäköisesti muun muassa legionellabakteeria, joka voi aiheuttaa vakavaa keuhkokuumetta. KHO:n mukaan hiukkaset voivat levitä tuulen mukana sataman lähiasutusalueelle."

Moreno et al. applied experimental evolution to identify genes conferring host specificity to L. pneumophila, highlighting the importance of mutations targeting the LerC protein and the LPS synthesis cluster.

File under history repeating itself. Increasing case counts in #Harlem #NYC #Legionella outbreak. #CoolingTowers potentially once again may be a cause. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/well/legionnaires-disease-new-york-city-cases.html

#Legionella pumps 100s of effector proteins into host cells, including to #mitochondria. This study shows that effector LpPIP is a tail-anchored protein of the MOM that recruits protein phosphatase 1 to modulate the host mitochondrial P-proteome @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4f2T5kE

#Japan’s #Osaka #Expo hit by #Legionella #outbreak 50 times over safety limit🫨
"The bacterial #contamination is te latest in a series of mishaps tt hv plagued #EXPO2025 since its opening. #Public frustration has mounted over issues such as long #queues, a bomb scare, rogue drones, a malfunctioning subway line & fears of a methane explosion..
In May, swarms of midges were seen on te wooden walls & pillars of te “Grand Ring”. The bugs pose a health hazard"
🤔More bad news!?

Why do #bacterial species' #TransformationRates vary so dramatically? @epcrocha @labXC &co show that #Legionella & #Acinetobacter transformation rates evolve by sudden changes, likely caused by conflicts between #MGEs and the host bacterium #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4dMviTR

Large outbreak of #Legionella underway in #Melbourne , Being attributed to #coolingtowers. Seems a bit unusual to me happening in #Australia winter season. https://www.msn.com/en-au/health/other/legionnaires-disease-outbreak-in-melbourne-continues-to-grow/ar-BB1r3kTZ
