- I work in a relatively new building in the Boston area. Several
- folks lately have been out sick with pnuemonia type symptoms but
- the last 3 people who have been to the Doctors have mentioned
- checking for Legionnaires' disease. Is that possible in a heated
- building? Is it contagious between co-workers? There are currently
- four people out with the same symptoms and they are all in adjoining
- offices.

- One is in the hospital and the other 3 have been to the doctors
- over this weekend.
