The transmission of water-related diseases in emergencies is as much likely to the lack of sufficient quantities for personal and domestic hygiene as to contaminated water sources. Hence, the quantity of water supplied is prioritized over the quality. However, this is done without neglecting the importance of a supply that is free of pathogens and aesthetically pleasing. In other words, a larger quantity of relatively good quality water is better than a small quantity of very high quality water. Once the indoor water is exhausted, some outdoor water sources can be used in an emergency. Outdoor water must be treated before using because it can be contaminated by a variety of microorganisms, including bacteria and parasites that cause diseases such as dysentery, cholera, typhoid, and hepatitis. If it is possible that the water is contaminated with chemical, biological, and radiologic agents, never use the water. In this case, the water purification treatments listed below will not make the water safe to drink.
