This book examines, in both a current and historical context,
water-related illness in the U.S. Emphasis is placed upon the
transmission of infectious diseases through contaminated drinking
water supplies and those deficiencies in water supply systems which
allow waterborne outbreaks to occur. Chapters have been included on
the important etiologic agents responsible for waterborne outbreaks
in the U.S., surveillance activities, regulations, water treatment
to prevent the occurrence of waterborne outbreaks and procedures
for investigating waterborne outbreaks. For completeness,
discussion have been included on illnesses contracted by ingestion
of contact with waters for bathing , swimming, or wading and
chronic ingestion of low levels of chemical contaminants in
drinking water; however, because of space limitations there are
necessarily brief, and the reader is directed toward the provided
references, which discuss these subjects in more depth.
