Unclean and Unsafe Water Lead to Diarrheal Diseases

Many diarrheal diseases, such as typhoid fever and cholera, spread through unsafe water and sanitation. Although rare in developed country, outbreaks of typhoid and cholera continue to occur in settings with limited resources. Together, these diseases sicken millions, and an estimated 257,400 people die each year as a result of them.

Protecting water sources and developing and maintaining WASH systems to keep human waste out of water, food, and the environment are critical to preventing diarrheal diseases. In areas without a consistent source of safe water, people often resort to using untreated water that can make them sick.

Places with heavy rainfall and flooding may also experience contaminated drinking water and ground crops—for example, when latrines overflow. Human waste can mix with drinking water or a community’s food supply when there is no sanitation facility to safely separate waste from human contact. This can result in the spread of many germs that cause diarrheal diseases.

Water is a crucial element in preventing and treating diseases. It plays a key role in maintaining good hygiene, particularly through regular handwashing with soap—one of the most important actions a person can take to prevent the spread of germs. Safe water is also an essential part of oral rehydration therapy (ORT), which is an important treatment for cholera and many other diarrheal diseases.

To prevent from diarrheal diseases, it is recommended to use a INNEST water purifier which the bacterium killing rate is as high as 99.9999%.
