"Clean water is important for human health. Polluted water is dangerous because
it causes diseases among people," said the Vice Chancellor of Baqai Medical
University (BMU), Professor Dr Syed Azhar Ahmed.
He said this while
addressing a health awareness-raising programme at the BMU, Gadap campus, on
Tuesday. The VC said that clean water is necessary for every part of the world
where human beings live.
He said that the existence of all civilisations
in this world was based on water sources. "The Himalayan Mountain is a major
source for our water needs but unfortunately, it has a low quantity of iodine,
which is important for human heath," he added.
He asked the people to
consume boiled water to protect themselves from water-borne diseases. "Water
should be boiled for at least 10 minutes other than filtering it. Health
organisations also need to create awareness among the people about clean
water," the VC added.
