New York City's Legionnaires' disease outbreak appears to be showing signs of slowing down, with a decrease in reported cases in recent weeks. The outbreak, which was first detected in July, has so far claimed the lives of at least 13 people and infected over 100 others. The outbreak has been linked to a cooling tower at a Bronx hotel, which is believed to have been the source of the bacteria that causes the disease. As the city's health officials continue to investigate and take steps to prevent further cases, residents and visitors alike are breathing a sigh of relief that the outbreak may finally be under control.
