Michigan Residents Told to Boil Water Amid Bacteria Concern
Michigan Residents , Told to Boil Water , Amid Bacteria Concern.
'Newsweek' reports that over 150,000 Michigan residents
have been told to boil tap water before consuming it
after a leak in a Macomb County water mains pipe.
On August 1, the leak caused a "large drop in water pressure" and flooding in nearby roads and fields.
.
The health advisory to boil water is
in place for multiple Macomb County
communities and one Oakland County city.
.
According to the Great Lakes Water Authority,
the advisory is expected to stay
in effect until at least August 3.
The advisory includes any water used
for drinking, making ice, washing dishes,
food preparation and brushing teeth.
'Newsweek' reports that low pressure,
like in Macomb, can result in bacteria
contaminating the water system.
.
Groundwater seeps into the water system through
cracks in the pipes, which could introduce pathogens
such as E.coli, streptococci and enterococci.
.
'Newsweek' reports that two rounds
of water quality tests are required
before the advisory can be lifted.
.
The soonest the boil water advisory
could be lifted by GLWA is 48 hours
from when the first test is taken.

GLWA will notify all impacted
communities once the water is
determined to be safe to drink, Great Lakes Water Authority, via 'Newsweek'

FDA Testing Reveals , Bird Flu Virus , in 1 in 5 Milk Samples.
'Time' reports that the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) has warned that traces of bird flu have been found
in nearly one-fifth of commercial milk samples tested. .
In a statement released on the agency's website,
the FDA said that traces of the virus do not
necessarily indicate a risk to consumers. .
According to the FDA, more tests are needed
to confirm if intact pathogens that remain
infectious are present in the samples.
Those tests would determine , "whether there is any risk of illness
associated with consuming the product.".
'Time' reports that the results of the study
come as a stark warning of how quickly the
virus is spreading among dairy cows in the U.S.
The virus has already killed millions of birds globally,
raising both health and food security concerns,
as well as spooking global markets.

In an effort to understand the extent of the outbreak
and potentially contain it, the USDA has implemented
mandatory testing of cows moving across state borders.
Authorities have stressed that the current
risk to humans remains low, with only one
identified human case in the U.S. this year. .
To date, the retail milk studies
have shown no results that would
change our assessment that the
commercial milk supply is safe. , FDA statement, via 'Time'
