Kufalikira kwa bacterium iyi kumawonjezeka kwambiri pakakhala ma antibodies ndi serum complement (koma kupezeka kwa zonsezi sikofunikira kwenikweni). Legionella pneumophila ndi tizilombo toyambitsa matenda tomwe timayambitsa mliri komanso chibayo chomwe chimapezeka m'dera limodzi komanso chibayo chomwe chimapezeka kuchipatala, zomwe zimapangitsa pafupifupi 80% ya chibayo cha Legionella. Legionella pneumophila imapezeka makamaka m'madzi ndi m'nthaka. Kuyamwa madzi ndi nthaka yoipitsidwa m'thupi la munthu mu mawonekedwe a aerosol kungakhale njira yayikulu yopezera matenda a Legionella. Pakadali pano, njira zazikulu zopezera ndi kuzindikira Legionella pneumophila m'ma laboratories ndi chikhalidwe cha mabakiteriya ndi kuyesa kwa serological.
