Cases of Legionnaire's disease have been documented at hotels, gyms and even health care facilities, but a recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds that even newborns are being infected -- after water births.
旅館、健身房甚至是衛生機構里都有軍團病菌病例記錄，但最近疾病預防和控制中心的一份報告發現連新生兒都受到了感染——這是在水中分娩法出現之后。
In two cases in Arizona last year, babies born in home tubs contracted the disease. Legionnaire's disease is a bacterial form of pneumonia. Symptoms can include fever, chills, cough and headaches. Named after an outbreak at a 1976 convention of the American Legion, it is spread through contaminated water but not person to person.
去年亞利桑那州有兩起病例，在家中浴盆里出生的嬰兒都患有此病。軍團病菌是肺炎的細菌形式。癥狀包括發燒、發冷、咳嗽和頭疼。此病因在1976年美國退伍軍人大會上爆發而得名，它會通過污水傳播，但人與人之間不會傳播。
