Lack of water is than lack of clean water. It is even worse where there is a lack of water and hot climate conditions. This high temperature makes people suffer a lot due to the high rate of water draining from their bodies. This causes several harmful conditions.
Mombasa has been affected by high temperatures, which environment analysts say is caused by global warming and rise in ocean waters. This has led to several skin infections and it is more for the children and expectant mothers.
The lack of this essential product has led people to the world of diseases. Apart from the hot weather now lack of fresh water has caused diseases like Hepatitis. Most of the hospital in Mombasa has a very high number of patients suffering from hepatitis.
People have been told to be cautious on what they drink. Treat any water before drinking or boil it. The Mombasa county government has raised an alarm of the disease which is on the course. Residents have been alerted to look for anyone with suspicious symptoms to be taken to the nearest hospital as early as possible.
The Mombasa residents should take note that consumable products should be bought from a clean and safe environment.
Ice cream and fresh cold juices have been said as the most products which transmitted Hepatitis very fast in Mombasa. These products most of them are packed with bottles or plastics picked from dump sites. "Take control of what you consume and drink and when you suspect anything do not hesitate to report or take the patient to the nearby hospital." said a Coast general hospital Mombasa-based Cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Sore Aseyo .
