PLAYBOY MANSION OUTBREAK: BACTERIA
TRACED TO WHIRLPOOL SPA: Health
officials identified legionella bacteria in a
whirlpool spa at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles during an
investigation in February that began when people were sickened
after attending a fundraiser. A number of people
came down with a respiratory illness after DomainFest’s Feb. 1-3
conference, which culminated in a fundraiser at the Playboy Mansion
in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles. Officials investigated to
see if legionellosis was at fault; the more severe version of that
illness is known as Legionnaires’ disease, while a milder version
is called Pontiac
fever.
