This review examines the complete pathway from Legionella persistence in engineered water systems to human disease detection and outbreak response. It explains the influence of stagnation, pipe chemistry, testing practices, genomics, and surveillance, and proposes an integrated framework that emphasizes continuous system performance, shared accountability, and proactive water safety management.
