Cape Town – The National Institute for Communicable Diseases has urged people to be wary of legionella in water that might have remained stagnant due to the closure of various businesses during the coronavirus lockdown.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the NICD asked that precautions be taken during the Covid-19 period as businesses such as restaurants and hotels remain closed, as this poses the risk of legionella in the water systems if not managed properly. * Controlled flushing of all hot and cold water outlets should be done at premises where a shutdown was implemented, to prevent water stagnation.
