As you might have heard, the City of Cape Town water and sanitation department announced residents in the Cape Town CBD / Camps Bay / Sea Point and surrounding areas should stop drinking tap water with immediate effect.

The City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation Department, in consultation with the City’s Health Department, is investigating complaints related to an unusual smell/taste of municipal tap water along the Atlantic Seaboard.
“The reports indicate that water has an earthy/metallic character.”
It is suspected to be Geosmin, and organic, naturally occurring compound. As soon as test results from quality sampling are available, the City will provide updates on the matter.
While the taste and odour can be unpleasant, geosmin is not toxic or harmful.
With all the hygienic concerns surrounding COVID-19 drilled into us, any potential threat to cause any further damage should be avoided at all costs.
We are available to assist with the new changes in water quality. Whether the new conditions are permanent or not, rather be safe than sorry.

Cryptosporidium, sometimes informally called crypto, is a genus of apicomplexan parasitic alveolates that can cause a respiratory and gastrointestinal illness that primarily involves watery diarrhoea with or without a persistent cough in both immunocompetent and immunodeficient humans.
Giardia is a tiny parasite (germ) that causes the diarrheal disease giardiasis. Giardia is found on surfaces or in soil, food, or water that has been contaminated with feces (poop) from infected people or animals. You can get giardiasis if you swallow Giardia germs.
