I am extremely concerned that our municipality is not heeding the disaster of great proportions that has been warned of many times. Our safety, including safe water as basic human right is enshrined in our constitution and this is being ignored criminally.
The pathogenic content has Ben proven many times. What has not been said is that when the so called E. Coli test is noted as positive, it refers to the fact that fecal content , including life threatening bacteria such Vibrio cholera (yes that one!), Listeria spp and others would in all likelihood also be in the water, potentially causing life threatening outbreaks of diseases to our communities. Our overstretched health system will not be able to handle this. how many babies have already died from diarrhoea and other diseases that could be ascribed to our water.?
