Waterborne disease

Okay kiddo, today we're going to learn about waterborne diseases. Waterborne diseases are illnesses that are spread through drinking contaminated water.

Just like how we wash our hands to get rid of germs, we also need to make sure the water we drink is clean and doesn't have any germs in it.

Sometimes water can get contaminated if it gets mixed with things like poo, pee, or chemicals. That's why we need to be careful where we get our drinking water from.

Waterborne diseases can make us really sick with symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and stomach ache. It's important to be careful and avoid drinking dirty water.

Luckily, we can treat contaminated water by filtering it or adding certain chemicals to kill any germs. So, always make sure to drink clean water and stay healthy!
