dc.description.abstract | This study investigated the quality of water sources in Kamuli District, Uganda, and assessed their implications for public health. The research highlighted the critical relationship between water quality and health outcomes, particularly in rural settings where access to clean water is limited. Through a comprehensive analysis of various water sources, including boreholes, wells, and surface water, the study identifies prevalent contaminants and their potential health risks, such as waterborne diseases. Data were collected using water sampling and laboratory analysis, alongside community health surveys to evaluate the incidence of diseases related to poor water quality. The findings revealed significant correlations between contaminated water sources and increased rates of gastrointestinal diseases in the local population. Recommendations for improving water quality management and public health interventions are discussed to mitigate the health risks associated with inadequate water sanitation practices in the region. | |
