Texas Officials Give Update On Efforts Clean Water Contaminated By Deadly Parasite – By OAN Newsroom (OANN) / Sept 30 2020
Texas officials gave an update on efforts to purge the water source for the city of Lake Jackson of a deadly brain eating parasite. On Tuesday, officials from the state’s Commission for Environmental Quality and Gov. Gregg Abbott addressed concerns surrounding the contamination.
Residents in Lake Jackson have been advised to boil their water before consuming it. This all follows the death of a six-year-old boy earlier this month after he became infected from the parasite.
Reminder: A Boil Water Notice is in effect for the City of Lake Jackson.
Boiling the tap water makes it safe for drinking & cooking. For all other uses, citizens are urged to take these precautions.
