Hotels and casinos have an important responsibility to protect the health of each guest, which can be difficult when guests gather in large groups where disease can spread more easily. Use the resources on this page to prevent and control an outbreak in your hotel.

If you suspect that you might be experiencing an outbreak at your property, please reach out to SNHD immediately. The sooner SNHD knows about it, the sooner we can work together to help end it. You can call the Office of Epidemiology at (702) 759-1300 at any time, Environmental Health Foodborne Illness at (702) 759-1504, or your assigned inspector during business hours.If you suspect that you might be experiencing an outbreak at your property, please reach out to SNHD immediately.

Legionella is a bacterium that causes respiratory illness and pneumonia. People become infected by breathing in air droplets from contaminated water systems. This can happen in spas and showers, or around fountains and misters. Take a look at our Legionella Resources Library for more information.
