A summer outbreak of Legionnaires disease killed 7 people and left more than 100 people infected.

The New York City Health Department found the bacteria that causes Legionnaires disease in 12 different cooling systems in Central Harlem.

The Health Department announced that the community cluster ended on August 29, three weeks after anyone with symptoms was identified.

We talked to people around 125th Street and Malcolm X Boulevard, where reports of the disease had been reported.
