The World Health Organization has stated that water-related diseases are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Over 3 million people die each year from these causes, nearly all in developing countries. Diseases resulting from contaminated water comprise 80% of the total disease burden in the world's poorer countries. The WHO has estimated thatt up to half of all hospital beds in the world are occupied by victims of water contamination.
