How terrible is the water of the previous night?

There may be Legionella in the water of the previous night .

Legionella can cause pneumonia, and Legionella can be isolated from water samples from water pipes in lakes, restaurants, hospitals, homes, etc. It can be seen that Legionella is deeply hidden in the water pipeline and permeates our lives. The overnight water in the tap is likely to contain Legionella.

Legionella pneumonia：

Legionella pneumonia is an infectious disease caused by Legionella pneumophila, which may be associated with other extrapulmonary system damage. Legionella pneumonia is one of the most serious cases of atypical pneumonia. The mortality rate without effective treatment is as high as 45%. Legionella pneumoniae can be an outbreak.

The incidence of the disease was higher in men than in women. Pregnant women, the elderly and people with low immune function were the high incidence groups;

Typical patients with Legionella pneumonia often have subacute onset, such as fatigue, weakness, myalgia, chills, fever, etc.; they can also have a sudden onset after 2-10 days incubation period, such as high fever, chills, headache, chest pain, and then cough is aggravated, with a small amount of blood silk or blood phlegm in the sputum. The amount of sputum is less, but it is generally not purulent.

Early gastrointestinal symptoms are obvious, about half of them have abdominal pain, mostly watery stool.

Neurological symptoms are also common, such as anxiety, nerve retardation and depression.

With the development of lung lesions, respiratory failure may occur in severe cases.

Long term use of overnight water may lead to lead poisoning.

The tap water in the tap and water pipe that is stopped overnight is still. The water will react with the metal pipe wall and metal chamber of the tap to form metal polluted water. The polluted water is left in the water pipe. We turn on the tap directly in the morning and use the overnight water first. And the residual microorganisms in tap water will also reproduce, and if the use of poor quality faucets, "overnight water" lead content is seriously exceeded.

The harm of lead pollution：

It is easy to cause anemia, headache, dizziness, fatigue, drowsiness, constipation and limb soreness. Some people have metal taste in their mouth, and symptoms such as arteriosclerosis, peptic ulcer and fundus hemorrhage are also related to lead pollution.

If children lead poisoning will appear growth retardation, loss of appetite, walking inconvenience and constipation, insomnia;

If primary school students, there are hyperactivity, hearing impairment, inattention, mental retardation and other symptoms;

If lead enters pregnant women, it will pass through the placenta barrier, affect fetal development, cause deformity, and even lead to premature delivery and abortion.

How to avoid overnight water？

When you want to use water in the morning, turn on the tap and do not rush to use water. Drain water for 1 to 3 minutes before using water.

If you are afraid of waste, you can use the water to flush the toilet and wash the mop.
