The 31 pages that link to Waterborne disease, each with the reason it gives.

• Water scarcityRelated: Scarcity can force reliance on unsafe sources or reduce hygiene.

• Water qualityRelated: Microbial contamination can turn unsafe water into a direct route of infection.

• FloodRelated: Floodwater can spread sewage and pathogens into drinking-water supplies and living spaces.

• Water pollutionRelated: Sewage and fecal contamination can spread infectious organisms through water.

• Rainwater harvestingRelated: Unsafe collection, storage, or treatment can expose users to pathogens.

• John SnowRelated: Snow argued that polluted water, rather than foul air, carried cholera between people.

• ChlorinationRelated: Disinfection with chlorine sharply reduces the risk of many waterborne infections.

• Water securityRelated: Unsafe supplies make preventable disease a direct consequence of insecurity.

• Combined sewer overflowRelated: Untreated sewage can expose people to pathogens through recreation or contaminated water supplies.

• Drinking water treatmentRelated: Preventing waterborne disease is a central reason for treating drinking water.

• SewerageRelated: Reliable sewage collection limits exposure to human waste and its pathogens.

• Urban floodingRelated: Floodwater can mix with sewage and spread contamination through neighborhoods and buildings.

• AqueductRelated: Aqueducts can improve access to clean sources, but unsafe conveyance can spread contamination.

• Drinking waterRelated: Microbial contamination can make water unsafe even when it looks clear.

• Drinking water qualityRelated: Disease risk is the central health consequence of microbial contamination.

• Water, sanitation and hygieneRelated: Water treatment and protected sources reduce this major WASH transmission risk.

• Water disinfectionRelated: Preventing these infections is the central public-health purpose of disinfection.

• ShigellaRelated: Unsafe water can spread Shigella where sanitation systems fail.

• MicrosporidiaRelated: Microsporidian spores can contaminate water and contribute to human exposure.

• Sanitary engineeringRelated: Preventing waterborne illness is a central reason for safe water systems.

• SewageRelated: Sewage can introduce disease-causing microbes into drinking and recreational waters.

• SlumRelated: Unsafe water and inadequate sanitation can increase the risk of outbreaks.
