摘要
This case report describes a case of Legionnaires' disease for whom the source of infection was the campervan in which the patient had travelled for 3 months. This case shows that Legionnaires' disease can be acquired by exposure to a relatively new (not previously reported) source that is commonly used as (holiday) transportation vehicle.
