The European Working Group for Legionella Infections (EWGLI) was formed in 1986. Its members are scientists with an interest in improving knowledge and information on the epidemiological and microbiological (clinical and environmental) aspects of legionnaires' disease. This is achieved through international surveillance of the disease, as well as developments in diagnosis, management and treatment methods.

 

The surveillance scheme EWGLINET, formally hosted on this website, has been renamed as the European Legionnaires' Disease Surveillance Network (ELDSNet) and can now be accessed from this link: ELDSNetEmail enquiries about the new ELDSNet scheme should be sent to eldsnet@ecdc.europa.eu

ELDSNet is coordinated and managed by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), in Stockholm, Sweden. All case reporting and access to information related to the surveillance scheme has migrated to their website.

For the moment the EWGLI website (www.ewgli.org) will be maintained by the Health Protection Agency Centre for Infections in London and links to the EWGLI SBT typing database, and the EQA schemes will be retained.
