In the past thirty years there have been thirty-five new infectious diseases identified around the world, with names now familiar to us such as, Hepatitis C, Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever, and the variant Creutzfeldt - Jakob disease. The prevention and control of infectious diseases involves dealing with numerous pathogens, each of which poses a specific threat to public health. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides guidance on handling wastewater safely, and this course will focus on the latest information available. Topics covered will include the various factors attributing to the transmission of infectious diseases, and measures which can be taken to help reduce the spread of these diseases by the public utility. We will also address basic hygiene practices, personal protective equipment, and disposal actions that should be taken by water and wastewater operators when handling untreated wastewater.
