Water & health

                  💚       Water  & health      💦       

 On our planet earth,water is the second most need for all living beings after oxygen.It is next to impossible to survive more than three days without water.That is why it is said that water is life.

                                  

In fact ,seventy per cent of the human body but also other livings things contain the largest amount of water in their bodies .water help the body execute some of the important body functions like digestion excretion and balances the body temperature.you might have shocked knowing the fact that the first organism of the earth was evolved in the water that is called reptille.

• Health  💖

                                                                   Contaminated water and poor sanitation are linked to transmission of diseases such as cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid, and polio. Absent, inadequate, or inappropriately managed water and sanitation services expose individuals to preventable health risks. This is particularly the case in health care facilities where both patients and staff are placed at additional risk of infection and disease when water, sanitation, and hygiene services are lacking. Globally, 15% of patients develop an infection during a hospital stay, with the proportion much greater in low-income countries.

                                                  In many parts of the world, insects that live or breed in water carry and transmit diseases such as dengue fever. Some of these insects, known as vectors, breed in clean, rather than dirty water, and household drinking water containers can serve as breeding grounds. The simple intervention of covering water storage containers can reduce vector breeding and may also reduce faecal contamination of water at the household level.
