Few Answers About Chester Mental Health Center Legionnaires Outbreak
(Chester, IL) — There’s no word when the state will have more answers about the Legionnaires outbreak at a southern Illinoismental health facility. The Illinois Department of Mental Health late last week said it is still waiting for tests to come back about the water supply at the home after a resident came down with Legionnaires earlier this month. The center in Chester is the third state facility to confirm Legionnaires or the presence of Legionella, which causes the disease.
