(KMOV.com) – A West County hotel where a preliminary test came back positive for Legionnaires’ Disease has reopened Sunday.
The preliminary testing results are in connection with two cases of the disease.
Missouri health officials are issuing concerns about the St. Louis Marriott West Hotel in Town and Country, which is located near I-64 and Highway 141.
Officials have conducted cultured tests at the hotel but are still waiting on the results.
As a precaution, the hotel says it will temporarily close on Saturday at noon so that the water systems can be flushed and disinfected.
One guest said the hotel is not informing guests about the situation unless someone specifically asks.
Health officials say that as right now, the hotel is not legally required to notify guests about the preliminary test results.
The process, which took three hours, is a recommended measure to sanitize water systems.
In addition, the hotel said any guest who has stayed there within the last 14 days who develops symptoms of pneumonia should seek medical attention.
