What to know about #Legionnaires' disease, which has sickened dozens in #NYC
An outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease in NYC has killed 2 people & sickened 58 since late July.
City #health officials link the Central #Harlem outbreak to #CoolingTowers, structures containing water & a fan that are used to cool buildings. They said 11 of these towers initially tested positive for a type of #bacteria that causes Legionnaires’, but the problem has been remedied.

The NYC #Legionnaires outbreak has grown to 22 cases, with 1 death. Cases have been reported in Central Harlem (ZIP codes 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037 & 10039) & bordering communities. Sounds like cooling towers (multiple?) may be the source??? https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/about/press/pr2025/nyc-health-provides-update-on-legionnaires-cluster.page

As #Flint struggled with #WaterQuality, it also saw an outbreak of #Legionnaires' disease, leading to the #deaths of at least 12 people & sickening dozens more.
Today, the #EPA states 97% of #lead service lines have been replaced, although last year a federal judge held the city of Flint in #contempt over taking too long to replace some remaining lead pipes.

Card 102: Kid Quantum
Another tough power to render, though the "colorful stasis field" could have been something.
Good use of the Legion logo on the last Legionnaires card.
-
Card 101: Catspaw
Every team needs a cat person.
The top down, slightly-angled perspective here makes the card really dynamic.
-
Card 100: Dragonmage
I legit don't know much about this character, but I like this moody, atmospheric card.
-
Card 099: Computo
The circuitry backdrop is reminiscent of Iron Man's MU series 2 card.
Nice to see a "Legionnaire" who isn't a duplicate of an older LSH character.
-
Card 098: Ferro
Well, now they're not even trying, just dropping the "Lad" off his original name. Good card though.
-
Card 097: Gossamer
Gossamer is a terribly generic codename, especially when "LIGHTENING Lass" is right there, to make a punny distinction between her old powers (and her brother's), and her newer density-based ones.
-
Card 096: Alchemist
Pearson is almost Bachalo-esque here, though what Alchemist is actually doing gets a little lost (alchemy is a tough power to render via trading card).
-
Card 095: Matter Eater Lad
Is there a better name in all of comics than, "Matter Eater Lad?" Discuss.
-
Card 094: Ultra Boy
Jo Nah swallowed by a space whale. Never change, Legion, never change.
The whole "one power at a time" thing is such a clever conceit for a superpower.
-
Card 093: Brainiac 5
What a fantastic facial expression of annoyance & disdain.
At first glance of the cardback image, I wondered why Ikaris of the Eternals was on the card.
-
Card 092: Andromeda
AKA Substitute Supergirl.
A very Adam Hughes card.
-
Card 091: Inferno
"Dirk Morgna" is another real name all-timer.
Chris Sprouse? Good at facial expressions.
-
Card 090: Shrinking Violet
Seriously, these Legion cards continue to be bangers.
"Shrinking Violet" is one of my favorites of the "updated" Legion codenames.
-
Card 089: Leviathan
Once again, a great mix of "showing off the power" and characterization in the cardfront image.

The Southern Nevada Health District announced on Thursday it is looking into three cases of Legionnaires' disease in guests who stayed at Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino and one travel-associated case of Legionnaires' disease in a guest that stayed at The Orleans Hotel & Casino.
Legionnaires’ disease is a serious type of pneumonia caused by the Legionella bacteria.

How can #Barclay say it was a "precautionary measure" to remove people from the #BibbyStockholm ?
There was a POSITIVE indication that #Legionnaires was in the water system.
This is not proceeding with caution. This is proceeding with a very real public health measure and strategy.
-
#Barclay says about the #BibbyStockholm that it was "an isolated incident that raised a concern."
No, it wasn' t an 'incident' it was a comprehensive test for water-borne bacteria, #Legionnaires specifically.
-
#Barclay on @SkyNews says Portland Council did inform the Home Office on the Monday about the #Legionnaires outbreak on the #BibbyStockholm and that, "it's a matter for them to respond to."
Wherewith he eschews responsibility.
-
#Asylum barge crisis reveals #cruel & incompetent Govt. Portland council does regular #legionnaires check, the Home Office doesn't. Either Gov't doesn't know its responsibilities, or it doesn't care. Either way Tories a moral vacuum, disgusting & callous. #ToryLiars #ToryCorruption https://tinyurl.com/yc3ryrj5
