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 & environmental) aspects of legionnaires' disease. This is achieved through international surveillance of the disease, as well as developments in diagnosis, management and treatment methods.
This website is managed by the co-ordinating centre in London and the information provided on it has been prepared by members of EWGLI and the European Surveillance Scheme for Travel Associated Legionnaires’ Disease (EWGLINET). In the event that hotels or other accommodation sites are named on this website, it is with the agreement and support of the European countries that are following the procedures outlined in the European Guidelines for Control and Prevention of Travel Associated Legionnaires' Disease. Countries using the guidelines are noted in the list of collaborators.
