You live Happytown, Illinois, and you are an intern for the Happytown County Health Department. It is now April and your office at the Happytown County Health Department has just created a new educational flyer to help prevent cryptosporidium from spreading via recreational water this summer. The flyer is available in every language spoken in the state. Think of 4 places where you would post copies of this flyer to prevent cryptosporidium from spreading via recreational water this summer. Note: At least two of these four places cannot be a recreational water facilities. Your choice of posting locations could be due to the location, activities that occur at the location, or the audience that uses that location. Where is the FIRST place you would post copies of this flyer?

Kids who attend day care centers, including diaper aged kids and people who take care of the day care kids are more like prone to infection. Especially, when parents of infected kids leave their kids in the day care where rest of the kids attend. Kids have weak immune system and they get easily affected by Cryptosporidium.

Ponds, Lakes, Indoor swimming pool

Backpackers, hikers & campers use the lakes and ponds for bathing, swimming etc., are exposed to Cryptosporidium infection as they end to consume unfiltered and untreated water

Schools and Hospitals

Kids, infants and pregnant women are more like to get seriously ill due to weak immune system which may lead to dehydration leading to diarrhea, as they tend to contact infected people.
