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,(WHO,2017).
In most of sub Saharan African states suffer from safety water this occur due to global climatic change as well as environmental pollution which influence contamination of water with pollution, this kind of problem in many countries encounter and lead to outbreak of disease like polio to the young generation, diarrhea and chorela but out task is to improve environmental cleanness, ocean and presave nature of forest in order to ensure we get safe water
