About Bacteria, Viruses and Cysts
So what is all about, in relation to water issues? Why should we care? These things can't hurt me? The risks are so low why worry?
With over 65% of all global drinkable water contaminated, there is a lot to be concerned about the water we drink, about the water we use to shower and about the water we use to water our food crops.
Some of the more comon water borne dieases and viruses include
Giardia
Cryprosporidium
Below is a table of some of the more common Bacteria, Viruses and Parasites that occur.
