I am trying to find out the areas afected, i am shocked that every household will not recieve a supply of clean bottled water we all pay for the water we use the least anglian water could do is supply the water. i am wondering how long the water has been afected i only found out through a parent at school this morning there needs to be better plans with informing people in the future.

If you read up on outbreaks of this kind you will see that the all clear is often not given for several MONTHS after the incident ... you only need to consider that it's Pitsford Resevoir which is affected and with a surface area of nearly 3sq miles, that's an awful lot of water that needs to be treated!

I've put a group up of Facebook for this problem, hopefully most people will have got the news from their post or on the news by now.

Ian Spider Cramp, I'm so glad you put a Facebook group up, it just so happened that I was searching Facebook for groups relating to "Cryptosporidium infected water supplies in the Anglian Region" and came across it. Had it not been for you I would never have known there was a problem.
