| dc.subject | The disease burden of waterborne pathogens is a growing concern within the Dutch water supply network. The aim of this study was to express the risk of L. pneumophila infections with the DALY approach, combining mortality and morbidity in a single metric. Because Legionnaires’ disease results in a high number of fatalities, it is important to include the disease burden in risk assessments, which means that he reverse QMRA together with the 10-6 DALY is recommended for further research. | |
