    Legionella - Causes Solutions...

    Legionella is a type of bacteria that can cause a severe form of pneumonia known as Legionnaires' disease. The bacterium is found naturally in freshwater environments such as rivers and lakes, but it becomes a concern in man-made water systems. Legionella thrives in warm water environments, particularly when water is stagnant or not properly maintained. Some of the most common places where Legionella can grow include cooling towers, hot tubs, air conditioning units, and plumbing systems, all of which can provide the ideal conditions for bacterial growth. 
    The first documented outbreak of Legionnaires' disease occurred in 1976 at an American Legion convention in Philadelphia, where over 200 individuals became ill, and 34 people died. This event led to the identification of the bacterium Legionella pneumophila, which was named after the American Legion convention. Since then, Legionnaires' disease has been associated with various outbreaks, particularly in large buildings, hospitals, and hotels, where water systems are extensive and difficult to manage. 
    Legionella bacteria are transmitted through the inhalation of aerosolized water droplets contaminated with the bacteria. This can occur when people breathe in mist, vapor, or water droplets from sources like air conditioning units, hot tubs, or showers. The bacteria can infect the lungs, leading to symptoms similar to pneumonia, including fever, cough, shortness of breath, and muscle aches. In severe cases, the disease can cause respiratory failure, organ damage, and even death, especially in vulnerable populations such as the elderly, smokers, and individuals with weakened immune systems.

    The massively popular 1990 novel Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton and its subsequent movie adaptations led to a huge resurgence in interest in dinosaurs and the prehistoric world. That interest continues to the present day, even though most of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park weren’t actually from the Jurassic period. Triceratops, Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus Rex and the huge sauropods such as Brachiosaurus that feature in the book and movies all actually belong to the Late Cretaceous period, more than 40 million years after the end of the Jurassic. Regardless, certain kinds of dinosaurs remain instantly recognizable, and among them, the “king” is undoubtedly the Tyrannosaurus.  
    	The first discovery of a Tyrannosaurus was made in 1902 and the largest carnivorous dinosaur ever found at the time quickly gripped the popular imagination. Even its name was dramatic - Tyrannosaurus Rex means “King of the Tyrant Lizards.” The T-Rex as it quickly became known didn’t appear until the last age of the Late Cretaceous period, the Maastrichtian, but when it did, it was the biggest and most terrifying of all the theropod predators. The T-Rex was around 13 feet tall at the hips (its tallest point since it isn’t believe to have stood upright), it was over 35 feet long, and it weighed about nine metric tons. Like most therapods, it had very powerful hind legs and much smaller fore legs, so the front legs look almost comically small. This dinosaur also had a large and powerful tail to counterbalance its very large head (some T-Rex skulls are nearly five feet long). Within the skull was a massive jaw lined with teeth up to a foot long. A reconstructive study has estimated that a T-Rex jaw was capable of exerting a pressure of over 55,000 Newtons; the equivalent of almost six tons of pressure. It was fast too, possibly capable of moving at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour.
