使用间接血凝试验来确定1200名表面健康的密歇根州居民血清中嗜肺军团菌血清群1-4抗体的患病率。血清群1是最流行的;在冬季（1980年1月至4月）收集的600份血清中有71份（11.8%）和在夏季（1980年7月至9月）收集的600份血清中有131份（21.8%）具有血清群1滴度。这种季节性差异与性别无关，在研究的六个年龄组中有四个具有统计学意义。在冬季样本中注意到50-59岁和60岁或以上年龄组的患病率呈下降趋势，在夏季研究中具有统计学意义。血清群2、3和4的抗体流行率显著较低，并且与血清群1的反应性相关。
An indirect hemagglutination test was used to determine the prevalence of antibody to serogroups 1-4 of Legionella pneumophila in sera from 1200 apparently healthy Michigan residents. Serogroup 1 was the most prevalent; 71 (11.8%) of 600 sera collected during the winter months (January-April, 1980) and 131 (21.8%) of 600 sera collected during the summer period (July-September, 1980) had serogroup 1 titers. This seasonal difference was independent of sex and was statistically significant in four of six age groups studied. A trend toward decreasing prevalence in the 50-59 years and 60 years or older age groups was noted in the winter sample and was statistically significant in the summer study. Prevalence of antibody to serogroups 2, 3, and 4 was significantly lower, and was associated with serogroup 1 reactivity.
