A village shares a water source that has been reached by sewage. Which kind of disease spreads most easily there?

1. Pathogens can travel in droplets in the air, in food, or in water. 2. Sewage carries pathogens from the gut of infected people. 3. When sewage reaches a water source, the water becomes contaminated. 4. Everyone who drinks that water may swallow the pathogens. 5. Diseases spread this way are called waterborne diseases. 6. Airborne spread would need coughing or sneezing, which is not the route here. 7. An inherited condition is passed from parents and is not caught from water. _Source: Siyavula Natural Sciences Grade 8 (CC BY 4.0), Transmission of infectious diseases_
