Once the nice weather arrives, the first thing that people think about is arranging for their pool water delivery in Branford. Although there are people who leave the water in the pool over the winter, there are those, especially with above ground pools that do not.
Families that are fortunate enough to have a backyard pool usually consider such things as life jackets and swimming lessons when it comes to making their pool child-proof. Rarely do parents give any thought to how easily it is for their children to get sick from germs that are in the pool water. When the pool water delivery in Branford is first made the water is pure and germ free as it will be trucked in from the city water supply, it is the same water that comes out of the tap. It’s not until people get in the pool that germs appear.
There are a number of illnesses that can be caused by contaminated pool water, among them;
* Diarrhea: Diarrhea can easily be caused by ingesting a mouthful of pool water that is contaminated with parasites, bacteria or a virus. Germs such as E.coli, salmonella and cryptosporidium can get into the pool water from anyone who has an infection or an accident in a diaper, an individual who may have fecal matter on their rear or the water gets contaminated by sewage from some source.
* Pink eye: as well as other infections such as a sore throat can be caused by adenovirus.
* Rashes: There are rashes which have the appearance of a wart, they are caused by poxvirus. Rarely is the virus spread in the pool waters itself but it can be spread by sharing towels or even pool toys with a child who carries the virus.
* Hepatitis A: This is a viral infection that attacks the liver; the result is jaundice, pain in the abdomen, fever and fatigue. Hepatitis A is commonly thought to be something which a person gets from eating contaminated food but it can be picked up from contaminated water as well.
Although chlorine does kill most of the germs that cause these illnesses, chlorine takes time to work. It takes about an hour for chlorine to kill the germs so it is not hard to imagine that a child with diarrhea can get in the pool and quickly infect the water, there will be no time for the chlorine to do its job.
