Sub Sahara’s water crisis

Sub Sahara is in South Africa and is the home of 70% of the people diagnosed with HIV aids. Sub Sahara is also one of the most undeveloped and poorest regions. There are many reports about Malaria and hundreds of people die there every day due to unclean water. Not only does clean water produce disease, but it also plays a part in the education of the children in Sub Sahara. Clean water in Sub Sahara Africa is rare. Only 30 % of the population has access to clean, reliable water. Most people are depending on water from wells, rivers, and ponds. As we know clean water is one of the most needed substances in the world. We use water for hospitals, to hydrate and quench your thirst, to bath, to clean, ect. Sub Sahara is lagging behind in water cleaning because of the government. According to the New York Times Sub Sahara’s government is not developing quick enough causing only 58 % of 684 million people in Sub Sahara, Africa to have access to clean water compared to the 79% of the developing world.

The hospital that the people diagnosed with HIV aids attend doesn’t have clean water or enough doctors. Because of the water crisis these needles and instrument used to treat the aids are unclean which can cause the disease to get worst. Unclean instrument don't only effect people with aids but also the ones that is just going to doctors for check ups. When being injected with a medical needle the instrument must be cleaned because it is about to enter your bloodstream which can cause unhealthy consequences.

A consequence that the children of Sub Sahara are suffering from is the unclean water in schoolhouses. For women when they have their menstrual cycle once a month they’re not able to clean themselves Sub Sahara is in South Africa and is also the home of 70% diagnosed with HIV aids. Sub Sahara is also one of the most undeveloped and poorest regions. There are many reports about Malaria and hundreds of people die there every day due to unclean water. As for the other children their education is being decreased because of the lack of separate clean bathroom. With the bathroom being dirty and the children not able to have a high hygiene diseases like malaria.

Dirty water is the worlds leading killer and something must be done about it. Sun Sahara has suffered from dirty water in many ways and has lost half of their population due to that effect. Many people in the Unites Stated do not understand the importance of clean water and what it can do for you. When women are going miles and miles for dirty water from ponds, rivers, and lakes something must be done.
