@rickirobin Most important info is in the beginning bit I could see in the “reader view” on my phone. :blobcatcoffee:

“Splash pads found in public parks across the United States are linked to thousands of cases of waterborne diseases that leave a calling card of diarrhea, fever and vomiting, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported this week.”

@rickirobin “More than 10,000 children became ill from 1997 to 2022 after using splash pads, and most of those outbreaks were attributed to cryptosporidium, a parasite that causes diarrhea and spreads through contaminated water.”

Will anything be done about it? Or will it ultimately spur every bit as much change as COVID did for indoor air quality standards?
