The Legionnaires' disease outbreak in Harlem has been traced to 12 cooling towers, including several at city-run buildings, officials said.

The health department offered five ZIP codes in central Harlem -- 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037, 10039 – that were at the center of the cluster, as officials stressed the disease was airborne and could reach people even outside of the directly affected buildings.

Announcement of the latest death comes just hours after city officials identified 12 cooling towers in 10 Harlem buildings that tested positive for Legionnaires' disease.
