Safe, Clean Drinking Water
Contaminant Source Health Effect
Lead
Cysts
(Cryptosporidium
& Giardia)
Lindane
(a common pesticide)
Lead can enter your water from lead
plumbing, lead solder and brass alloy
taps.
Main source is from animal faeces
containing the cysts. Run off carries
cysts into lakes and rivers.
A hard shell protects these micro-
organisms from the chlorine disinfection.
Chemicals can soak through the soil
into ground water, or can be carried into
lakes and rivers by rainwater run off.
Lead can interfere with red blood cells,
delay physical and mental development
in babies and children, increase blood
pressure and damage kidneys in adults.
Cysts can cause acute flu like symptoms
that can last one to three weeks in
healthy adults. Effects on children or
the elderly can be more serious and life
threatening for those with suppressed
immune systems such as cancer patients
or HIV/Aids patients.
Lindane has been shown to damage
liver, kidney, nervous system and immune
system in lab animals. At high levels, it
has caused nervous
and circulatory system damage in
humans.
