Water contamination (Lancashire)
It may not effect us in Accrington but it may effect some of your nearest and dearest:

"A Lancashire county council spokesman reiterated............that there were no plans to close schools in the area “at this stage”."
That made me laugh, don't they know it's school holidays? |

Re: Water contamination (Lancashire)
Our water suppliers rely on chlorine to make water safe but it doesn't kill this parasite.
Chlorine is toxic. I have a Berkey filter tank to remove chlorine, and it removes this parasite too. Berkey Water Filter Systems - World Leader in Portable Water Purification
