Dr. Michelle Morse defended the city's response to the summer disease outbreak in Central Harlem in which seven people died and more than 100 were sickened.

The City Council is set to grill administration officials on Monday after revelations that the source of the outbreak was tied to two city-owned buildings.

The ruling comes amid a fiery debate in the mayoral race about who has the right to a rent-stabilized apartment.

The shooting happened at 110th Street and Madison Avenue, a block from Central Park.

City officials say the Bronx cases are connected to the buildings' plumbing system.

Just a single case of the severe pneumonia was added to the city's tally on Monday; it's still the deadliest outbreak in years.

The number of those stricken by the disease also inched up.

The staffing shortage hampered the city’s ability to inspect cooling towers where legionella bacteria grew, officials say.

The workers allege that general contractors share blame for the disease outbreak in Central Harlem.

The city said investigators conclusively linked an earlier death to the disease.
