Welll..what we know...sanitary and accommodation facilities were actually better in legionary camp than they were in US Civil War or Napoleonic camps. I'd not be surpised if rate of death from diseases etc. was actually lower in Roman camps.
US Civil War military camps were notoriously bad and I don't think they compare too well.
