Abstract

Safe drinking water is a principal need of humans, and as such, post-Roman civilizations have devoted a large amount of resources to providing potable water to their citizens. Ironically, while water is essential for survival, it can also serve as a carrier and delivery method for many waterborne pathogens. These include protozoa, bacteria, and viruses that render intestinal disease symptoms that inspire prayer to unseen gods and plumbing systems.
