A Legionnaires’ disease outbreak in Harlem has claimed a fourth life, with nearly 100 confirmed cases and more than a dozen people still hospitalized. For the first time, city officials have identified 12 cooling towers that tested positive for Legionella bacteria — including four city-owned buildings such as Harlem Hospital.

The health department offered five ZIP codes in central Harlem -- 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037, 10039 – that were at the center of the cluster, as officials stressed the disease was airborne and could reach people even outside of the directly affected buildings.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams is expected to give an update on the Legionnaires' disease outbreak in Central Harlem.
