Second death reported in Legionnaires’ disease outbreak in New York City

Upper East Side outbreak: 72 people sickened and two have died from Legionnaires' disease.
City testing has focused on cooling towers in large buildings; owners must drain and disinfect towers that test positive.
New cases are declining—health officials say the source is likely eliminated; Legionnaires is a severe, treatable pneumonia caused by bacteria that thrive in warm, stagnant water.
