Our finding highlights the need for public health interventions to prevent further disease spread.engLegionella pneumophilaST1905BacteriaGenomic EpidemiologyOutbreakRecurrencePortugalResistência aos AntimicrobianosRecurrence, Microevolution, and Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Legionella pneumophila Sequence Type 1905, Portugal, 2014-2022journal article10.3201/eid3005.23138338666647
