A fifth New Yorker has died in the Legionnaires’ disease outbreak in Harlem, city health officials said. The cluster of the pneumonia-like illness, first detected on July 25, has spread across five zip codes in Upper Manhattan and sickened at least 108 people — including 14 who are currently hospitalized, according to a Monday update from the New York City Health Department. The death toll rose just as city officials announced Friday that 12 cooling towers in Central Harlem that tested positive for live Legionella bacteria have been fully drained, cleaned, and disinfected.
