Lehi E. coli infections are the result of drinking pressurized irrigation water and using it in backyard swimming pools and slip-n-slides
LEHI, Utah — Lehi City has determined a recent outbreak of E. coli is tied to the use of pressurized irrigation water for drinking and other recreational uses.In a news release Saturday, Lehi said it has determined the E. coli infections are the result of not only drinking the pressurized irrigation water, but also using it in backyard swimming pools and other toys such as slip-n-slides and squirt guns.Even a small amount of contaminated water in a child’s mouth can cause an E.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is strongly encouraging residents to use caution with produce watered by secondary irrigation systems that have not been treated. Washing fruits and vegetables alone will not kill the bacteria, only cooking them thoroughly will kill the E. coli.Symptoms of an E. coli infection may include diarrhea , abdominal cramps, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, it can lead to kidney failure, especially among young children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. If you or anyone you know experiences any of these symptoms, contact your healthcare provider.
Lehi City wants to make it clear that pressurized irrigation water has not been treated like culinary water has, and it is not safe to drink or use in cooking.
