Produktbeschreibung
Wells are the most affordable means of water supply in developing countries. The search for potable water supply in these countries is yet to be achieved. Wells are largely prone to surface and underground contaminations by parasites. This situation remains a great public health concern because it poses threats to wellbeing of man and safety of water. Well water contamination can be described as a "multiparasitic" condition, where a single well may be contaminated by more than one type of parasite. The users of both public and private wells should be conscious of possible contamination and observe adequate treatment of water obtained from wells. Contamination of a single well can affect surrounding wells using the same aquifer. There is a need for awareness about the danger of well contamination by pathogenic (protozoan) parasites. This will limit carelessness rendered to the wells and subsequently result into full well protection by man. 'Water is life'. Hence, there is need to keep it safe always to prevent waterborne diseases.
