Evaluating the efficacy of point-of-use water filtration units in Fiji
Background: To develop and evaluate a strategy for reducing the prevalence and impact of waterborne disease, a water quality intervention was developed for Fiji by Give Clean Water, Inc. in partnership with the Fiji Ministry ofHealth. Residents were provided and trained on how to use a Sawyer® PointONE™ filter, while also being taught proper hand washing techniques. At the time of the filter installation, all households were surveyed inquiring about the prior 2- to 4-week period. Households were measured a second time between 19 and 225 days later (mean =66 days).
