In most cases, liability falls on the owners, operators, and/or managers of the premises where a case or outbreak occurred, whether it is a hotel, a hospital, a senior housing facility, a cruise ship, a condominium, an apartment complex, etc. These parties have an obligation to do everything in their power to protect the occupants of their premises from known hazards, as the Legionella bacterium is considered to be. They are several factors that a claimant must prove one of which is negligence. Evidence of Duty of Care is therefore critical to disprove negligence claims.
