The Luz Médica clinic in Tucumán province was established in 2013 in connection with the investigation into the possible death of María de los Ángeles “Marita” Verón and made news in 2022 when a Legionella outbreak was recorded at the nursing home, resulting in six deaths.
From August 20 to 23 last year, six patients, including clinic staff, began to develop symptoms of bilateral pneumonia of unknown cause.
A few days later, new cases of Legionella — a bacterium that primarily affects the respiratory tract and often causes pneumonia — were added — all of which corresponded to “the same outbreak and the same site of infection.”
