No they don't, it is very clean and you are able to drink the water without getting sick. When they filter the water, all extra bacteria is filtered away.

How can the guinea worm be avoided?

Guinea worm disease is only transmitted by drinking stagnant
water with Guinea worm larvae in it. As such, if you avoid drinking
stagnant water from the few remaining Guinea worm endemic areas you
are not at risk. If you do need to drink stagnant water from these
remote areas, simply filtering your water through a cloth filter
will remove the water fleas that carry the larvae.

How does a common house cat get worms?

Perhaps you have heard of a pet cat that has had worms. The cat
did not get the worms by eating the directly. The hosts for the
tapeworm larvae are usually fleas. The host fleas are infested with
the tapeworm larvae.
When the cat cleans itself, it swallows the fleas. The tapeworm
larvae on the fleas change into tiny tapeworms. They then live and
grow as parasites in the intestines of the cat. The tapeworms
produce eggs and fertilize the with sperm. The fertilized eggs are
carried out of the cat's body as waste.
