Water borne diseases are infections caused by pathogenic microbes spread through contaminated water. Lack of clean water supply, sanitation and hygiene are major causes for the spread of waterborne diseases in a community.
There are different types of waterborne diseases, which vary depending on the pathogen likely to cause the disease. Typhoid, Cholera, Dysentry, Hepatitis A, Giardia are some of the examples of water borne diseases.
The symptoms of waterborne diseases can vary depending on the specific pathogen involved but often include gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, and nausea. Other symptoms may include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, and respiratory issues.
Preventive measures for waterborne diseases include ensuring access to safe and clean drinking water, proper sanitation and sewage treatment, adequate hygiene practices such as handwashing, and water purification techniques such as boiling, filtration, or chlorination.
A Water Quality Index (WQI) is a numerical expression that quantifies the overall quality of water for a particular purpose, such as drinking, swimming, or aquatic life support. It provides a single value based on multiple water quality parameters measured at a specific location and time.
