Hundreds of people in Devon have been complaining about suffering from an unpleasant stomach bug, with some branding it the "worst illness ever". They are suffering from cryptospiridiosis, which is an infectious illness caused by the parasite cryptosporidium.The parasite was detected in the water supply in an area of south Devon - meaning it is likely that people have been drinking contaminated water.
Those most at risk from the cryptospiridiosis are people whose immune systems do not work properly, such as people who are on immunosuppressant medicine, or people with other serious health conditions.But for most people, cryptospiridiosis is a highly unpleasant illness that gets better on its own with rest. What are the symptoms of cryptospiridiosis?According to the NHS, the most common symptoms are "watery diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach pains, and fever".
