The Water supply

"Turbidity is a measure of the cloudiness of water, and an indication of filtration effectiveness. Cloudy water is a sign of the presence of microorganisms that can cause gastrointestinal illness. Although controlled at the original filtration source, soil runoff and other factors can affect turbidity levels by the time water reaches a faucet".

A clean water supply in a hospital is of immeasurable importance. The following picture was taken a few weeks ago at the Dental OPD of the TUTH. 






I received these pictures a few weeks ago and i decided to add them to this blog because they show a grave shortcoming. I was informed that the brown water flowed for nearly half an hour and a few dentists were forced to wash their hands in this water after the dentists had completed the procedures. 

I urge the hospital administration to ensure clean water to be supplied throughout the hospital. And where infrastructure is lacking, they should be introduced.
