Background: Amazonas is a region in northern Peru with the second-highest incidence of malaria. Approximately 95% of the cases are reported in the Condorcanqui province, where native communities living along the banks of Santiago River lack access to potable water, sewage, and electricity. This study aimed to analyse malaria's spatial, temporal, and climatic characteristics in Condorcanqui to guide future studies and prevention strategies.

Regulatory frameworks for potable reuse often include stringent log reduction value (LRV) targets to ensure public health protection against exposure to viruses and protozoa. To achieve overall LRV targets and reduce associated capital and operational costs, it is important to maximize LRV credits awarded to each unit process in a potable reuse treatment train. This may include processes that are historically uncredited or undercredited, such as secondary biological wastewater treatment incorporating activated sludge and secondary clarification.

We present a novel report of abundance of halophilic Vibrio alginolyticus with thermotolerant and enterotoxigenic characteristics from community water system of an inland-focus of India causing diarrheal outbreak as an index pathogen. Though, Vibrio alginolyticus causing diarrhea after exposure to marine water and consumption of seafood was reported globally, its existence in non-saline drinking-water sources with pathogenic viability was unknown. A 'matched-pair-case-control' study identified the primary source of V.

Groundwater quality degradation is a significant environmental issue worldwide, with potentially severe economic consequences and harm to ecosystems and biodiversity. This can directly affect human health, particularly in developing countries where rapid and uncontrolled urbanization is on the rise. Groundwater is the primary resource for meeting the water needs of the Eloued region, located in southeastern Algeria.
