Downtown Atlanta hotel closes after 6 guests test positive for Legionnaires’ disease
[link to www.ajc.com (secure)]

A downtown Atlanta hotel has closed its doors while officials test for a rare, and sometimes deadly, form of pneumonia.
Six people who stayed at the Sheraton Atlanta on Courtland Street tested positive for Legionnaires’ disease, which is contracted by breathing in mist or swallowing water containing bacteria. Public health officials have not yet confirmed if the guests contracted the disease during their stay, a spokeswoman for the hotel said.

“The health and safety of our guests is our greatest priority,” general manager Ken Peduzzi said in a statement. “We are working closely with public health officials and outside experts to conduct testing to determine if legionella is present at the hotel. As a result, out of an abundance of caution we have made the decision to close the hotel while we await the results.”

I'd bet this was an earlier round of CoVid19 that got missed amongst a few legit Legionnaire's victims.

The original disease was found in a hotel too from nasty water on the rooftop ac units. It got all the way to the street and got some walkers by too.

I've always thought that it came from those dirty, filthy, never-cleaned sink traps. Can you imagine all the spitting that goes through those things and the hairballs? Disgusting.

If the number 666 is considered evil.
then technically, 25.8069758 is the root

Bullshyte!

Covid-19 or some early form of it was already in Atlanta in July 2019...when these 4 dozen guests got ill at a downtown hotel with some mysterious illness, six people died...half a dozen had no known diagnosis...a mystery illness if you will. These people were of all ages and races, mostly between 30-60.

They blamed the sudden deaths within 2 weeks on Legionnaire's Disease...but locals always said it never added up...who was Patient Zero? A guest or a hotel worker? Sound familiar to those Dominican Republic hotel deaths that have gone unexplained?

Fuckery is afoot...remember, Atlanta is home to the nation's busiest (the world's?) international airport...imagine all the sick people who pass through that filthy airport and ride the city train from the airport to those very same downtown hotels 24 hours a day.

That hotel outbreak of acute illness amongst so many people was the early version of Covid-19 big as shit.

I'd be curious to know which of these hotel guests went on to be diagnosed with Covid-19 or antibodies to it by November 2020?

Atlanta

An outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease tied to a prominent Atlanta hotel is the largest recorded Legionella outbreak in Georgia, an official with the public health department told CNN on Sunday.

On Monday, Atlanta-based attorneys filed the first lawsuit against the hotel, seeking compensation on behalf of a man who visited the property during the outbreak. In an email to CNN, Stewart Trial Attorneys said it and the Wetherington Firm represent more than 40 people who stayed at or visited the hotel during the outbreak.

One person died of the disease and 11 other cases were confirmed after stays or visits at the Sheraton Atlanta Hotel between June 12 and July 15, Nancy Nydam, a spokeswoman for the Georgia Department of Public Health, said in an email.

There also have been 63 probable cases, Nydam said. Probable cases are those who have symptoms of the disease but have not yet had a laboratory test to confirm it. Last week, there were 61 probable cases.
