Pontiac fever is a mild, flu-like illness caused by the bacteria Legionella pneumophila. It is named after an outbreak of the illness in Pontiac, Michigan in 1968. Unlike Legionnaires' disease, which is also caused by the same bacteria, Pontiac fever is not a form of pneumonia and does not cause lung inflammation.
Symptoms of Pontiac fever usually appear within 24-48 hours after exposure to the bacteria and can include fever, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue. The illness typically resolves on its own within 2-5 days, and most people do not require medical treatment.
Pontiac fever is transmitted in the same way as Legionnaires' disease, through the inhalation of water droplets containing the bacteria. Outbreaks of Pontiac fever have been linked to exposure to contaminated water sources, such as hot tubs, cooling towers, and decorative fountains
