slide-66

Water transmitted infectious disease

  • I. Water-

borne Pathogens carried by water Faecal-oral transmission

  • II. Water-washed

(Water- scarce) water quantity problem

  • III. Water-

based Pathogen depends

  • n water animal/

plant

  • IV. Water-

related Pathogen transmitted close/ near water Mosquito-borne

Water related diseases

slide-67
SLIDE 67

67

Water related infections

  • I. Water-borne route:

– Faecal-oral route of transmission (faecal contamination of water):

  • Person to person, animal to person, direct - indirect

(water, food, towels …)

– Intestinal tract disease:

  • Virus (Hepatitis A, Poliomyelitis), Bacteria

(Cholera, Shigellosis, …), Protozoa (Crytosporidiosis, Amoebiasis, Giadiasis, …)

slide-68
SLIDE 68

68

  • II. Water washed – water scarce:

– Transmission due to low water quantity (washable infection) – A. Water washed: intestinal tract infection

  • Increase water availability: decrease faecal-oral

transmission, e.g. cholera, bacillary dysentery, … – B. Water washed: skin infection / eye disease

  • bacterial skin diseases (scabies, …), eye infection

(trachoma)

  • Transmission: not faecal-oral, not water-borne

– C: Water washed: insect-borne

  • Louse-borne: typhus outbreak (Rickettsia provazekii)
  • Louse-borne relapsing fever (Borrelia recurrentis)

Water related infections

slide-69
SLIDE 69

69

  • III. Water-based route

– Pathogens depend on water animals/plants (intermediate host) for transmission:

  • snails, fish, …

– e.g. schistosomiasis, flukes, …

Water related infections

slide-70
SLIDE 70

  • IV. Water related route of transmission

– Spread by/near water – insect (mosquito)-borne disease – Development of insect bound to water: requirement of mosquito (ecology) defines distribution – Malaria: Anopheles sp. – Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF): Aedes aegypti

Malaria

  • Parasite: number 1 killer
  • 4 parasites: Plasmodium falciparum deadly (no

reservoir)

  • Disease: from symptomless to acute disease & death

(semi-immunity possible)

  • Treatment exists but: expensive, diagnosis not easy,

under medical supervision, costly, … no vaccine

  • 42% of world population at risk
  • Ca. 500 million cases/year; ca 2 million death/year
  • Huge economic burden (hospital admission, disease

periods, death, …)

  • Mosquito: Anopheles sp., large number of species
  • Ecology of Anopheles sp. varies: Urban / rural; Plains,

forest, mountains, …; Small – large water sites; Look closely at local condition

Dengue (hemorrhagic) fever

  • Emerging disease in tropical and subtropical areas
  • Virus infection: Arbovirose n°1 for human infection/

disease

  • No treatment, no vaccine available
  • Transmission by mosquito: Aedes aegypti

Epidemics by intervals (3 -5 years)

  • Urban disease, today invasion in rural areas
  • 2.5-3 millions pop. At risk (1/2 global population)
  • 50-100 million cases/ year
  • 0,5 million de DHF hospitalised ( 90% children <

15 years)

  • Imported cases frequent

  • III. Water-based

– Schistosomiasis – Flukes

  • IV. Water-related

– DHF – Malaria

  • Improve quality of drinking water (prevent use of

unprotected sources)

  • Increase use of water quantity (availability,

reliability, acceptance); personal & domestic hygiene

  • Sanitation (prevent contamination); reduce water

contacts (infested water); control intermediate hosts; prevent man-made disease

  • Surface water management (water bodies: small–

large); destroy breeding site (cleaning up activities); reduce exposure to water sites; mosquito control (impregnated nets etc); man- made disease
