Risk of Legionella
When buildings reopen after lockdown, it is essential that water systems are not put back into use without considering the risks of Legionnaires' disease. There is an increased risk of waterborne pathogens such as Legionella bacteria being present as a consequence of the conditions that lockdown may have created.
As a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19)pandemic, there is the potential for an increased number of people to be susceptible to Legionnaires' disease due to a compromised respiratory system during or after infection with COVID-19. Before re-opening your business you must consider this risk and what controls you need to put in place.
