Schumer launched his plan today to help prevent future Legionnaires’ cases in Syracuse and Upstate New York. Schumer said that recent New York incidents have underscored the need for more federal funds to be put toward stopping future incidents of Legionnaires’ disease. As a result, Schumer is launching a two-pronged push that would first provide increased federal funding to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to further research the bacteria and disease and develop national standards for <em>Legionella</em> testing in buildings' water supplies. Second, it would require the CDC to work with New York State and study new state regulations on testing cooling towers so a national plan to prevent reemergence of deadly Legionnaires' can be developed and shared with cities across Upstate New York and the country.</p>"}}
