Using molecular methods and shoe-leather epidemiology, Don Weiss and Kim Musser teamed up to resolve a Legionnaires’ outbreak in the Bronx in 2015. It’s a classic tale of combining surveillance and field investigations with advanced molecular methods to pinpoint and eradicate the lethal source of infections. Future deaths were prevented when the New York City Department of Health, the New York State Department of Health, and the CDC worked together to realize this public health success story. You can read about this and other cases in Don’s new book Disease Detectives: True Stories of NYC Outbreaks.
