摘要
An analysis of 691 French clinical Legionella isolates showed that the endemic L. pneumophila serogroup I strain Paris was responsible for 12.2% of all cases of legionellosis and had a specific pulsed-field gel electrophoresis pattern. We also demonstrated the presence of this endemic clone throughout Europe.
