Research Abstract |
We use the hydraulic flood simulation, coliform bacterium diffusion model, dose-response model and data of outpatient cases for quantitative analysis. The results obtained are as follows : 1. The incidence (incidence rate) of diarrhea as water borne diseases risk is 0.28 million people (21%) in the inundation area and 0.63 million people (17%) in the non-inundation area. 2. The inhabitants in the inundation area are exposed to drinking water polluted by coliform bacteria at 3.8CFU/ml on daily mean.
