• Description:
  As part of its commemoration of CDC’s 50th anniversary, MMWR is reprinting selected MMWR articles of Historyical interest to public health, accompanied by a current editorial note.
  
  Reprinted below is the initial report published August 6, 1976, on an outbreak of respiratory illness among persons who attended an American Legion convention in Philadelphia during the summer of 1976. Following that report is the special issue of MMWR published January 18, 1977, which announced the identification of the bacterium that caused Legionnaires disease. Tables from the special issue have been recreated to resemble the originals as closely as possible. A contemporary Editorial Note follows the outbreak reports.
